Great place to work - Senior Growth Manager StakeMate Employee Review

I’ve been at Stakemate for six months, and from the moment I joined I’ve felt genuinely grateful to be part of such a talented, driven, and collaborative team. The culture here is fast-paced but incredibly supportive - everyone is passionate about what they do, and that energy is contagious. It’s the kind of environment that pushes you to grow and do your best work every day. I was the only female in the London office when I joined, and was aware of a previous review that raised concerns about the culture. However, my experience has been the complete opposite. The founder was extremely thoughtful during my onboarding, making sure I felt comfortable and included and while that effort was appreciated, it honestly wasn’t necessary. Every single person I work with has been nothing but welcoming, respectful, and kind. We’ve naturally built friendships alongside our working relationships during office lunches and outings, and that makes my time here genuinely enjoyable. Leadership actively fosters a space where curiosity, experimentation, and personal development are encouraged, which is especially valuable to me in a junior role. I feel heard, supported, and constantly motivated by the people around me and the teams' extensive knowledge and experience are things I learn from everyday.

The start up industry isn't for everyone - Stakemate is a place where you will thrive if you are passionate, motivated and adaptable. It is not an industry that is predictable and for some people that may not suit them personally.

Working at Stakemate has proven to be a remarkable journey. This company is not just another player in the sports betting field; it is reshaping the industry with its cutting-edge social betting app. The potential of this app to disrupt traditional betting norms is substantial, and witnessing this innovation in action is incredibly inspiring. Stakemate is a small, yet mighty team, united by a shared mission to innovate. The dedication and passion each member brings to the table have fostered rapid progress and remarkable achievements in a short span. Communication here is open, fostering an environment where ideas flow freely and everyone's voice is heard, contributing to the vibrant and dynamic work culture. Social activities and weekly team lunches contribute to making Stakemate not just a great place to work but a community where you genuinely enjoy spending time. It offers a work environment with high levels of ownership and responsibility, balanced with fun and camaraderie. For those who thrive in a fast-paced, innovative setting and are passionate about making a tangible impact, Stakemate offers an exciting opportunity.

The fast pace and constant innovation can be challenging, sometimes leading to high expectations and tight deadlines. While this drives growth and fast learning, it may not suit everyone, especially those who prefer a more steady and predictable work pace. Additionally, as a small team, resources can sometimes feel stretched, though this also opens opportunities for significant personal development and career advancement.
