Andela reviews

I had a great training manager but the position asks a lot of you. You have to figure out a lot of stuff on your own kinda like building a bike while riding it in that respect. You'll have to figure out how to work with new platforms and attend training on your own and as a result, your time and energy are zapped. You'll spend hours developing cadences, researching online, documenting your notes in spreadsheets, calling, and marketing on LinkedIn. In addition, it's a growing company so Management is still trying to figure things out. New hires were held to the same standard as well seasoned associates along with professional BDR companies that were able to utilize tools we did not have access to.

- Andela now runs a contractor model and do not employ full time employees. The contractor contract is one of the worst I have seen to date, with lots of clauses that are aimed to screw their employees/contractors. - They pretty much don't care about their employees at this point. - They want their partner companies to believe they're still "changing Africa by growing more developers" which can't be more farther from the truth. - Working there does feel like being on a plantation. - The employees/contractors are heavily underpaid, with the company paying their engineers as low as 10% of what they make for the company.
