The interview process at Pleo was, at best, underwhelming. At no point did they share the salary range for the role, yet they took me through a three-stage interview process before I had to push back in the final stage. This was due to their request for a 20-minute presentation, which would require at least two hours of preparation. As an experienced CSM who has worked closely with C-level and senior stakeholders, I believe that the insights they sought from a presentation could have been effectively covered in a conversation. However, when I raised my concerns, their response involved shifting blame rather than addressing the issue constructively—hardly a promising sign of company culture. If this level of demand and blame-shifting is present in the hiring process, it’s easy to imagine how it manifests in day-to-day work life.

Very smooth and transparent process. From the beginning to the end the process was one of the best experiences. Continuous communication and feedback provided. Clear explanation of expectations and next steps. Very kind people at all stages of the process.
