SaltPay has a very fast-paced environment and we are challenged daily not only with difficult tasks, but also with short deadlines. Sometimes a project seems easy to put in place but coordinating it globally, aligning it with peers from other teams, countries and cultures can add an extra layer of challenges.

I feel like I have many opportunities to learn from other Salters. Some of them are experts in the field, some are natural leaders; most are always available to help and teach what they know. Being surrounded by intelligent people means absorbing new things, all the time, without even trying!

SaltPay has a very high bar when hiring people and, from the founders to the interns, I feel inspired and challenged every day when working with them. There are some people that are experts in the industry, but I am actually much more excited from the way they think - challenging the status quo, making things simples, doing the right connection, thinking long-term...

Given we are a startup, there is a lot of work that needs to be done to be successful in the market, and too little time to get there. This definitely makes the work challenging with the added pressure of delivering that helps me thrive.

The value most stressed upon at SaltPay is 'Saying it as it is'. We aim to keep the communication as honest and open without sugarcoating. All leaders have frequent 1-1 sessions with their team members to give constant critical feedback. Furthermore, the entire company attends a weekly meeting where any decision taken at any level can be challenged/questioned, with the option of being anonymous.

The work is challenging on two fronts: substance and deadlines. Things move incredibly fast but yet everyone is still expected to deliver to very high standards. This keeps everyone under pressure to put their best into their work. Finally, the work itself is challenging because it forces people out of their comfort zone and encourages everyone to master unfamiliar concepts very quickly.

Everyone is given the responsibility and trust to make decisions that can greatly impact the business - no matter one's level of experience. When people feel trusted, they are empowered to be their best selves without constraints. The lack of hierarchy and the abundance of independence make for an incredibly dynamic, productive environment.

Everyone is unique and has something to bring to the table. You always feel like the dumbest person in the room but same is true for everyone else who is in that room with you. This means that you end every day feeling more knowledgeable than you started, which over time has an exponential effect on the improvement of your abilities.

I can see the impact that SaltPay is having on people's lives. 50% of Europe's GDP comes from SMEs and they are largely underserved businesses. When I get my haircut or buy a coffee at the local coffeeshop or pick up a burrito at a food truck, I can see the people whose lives I have the opportunity of helping.

Working at SaltPay is not for anyone looking to coast through life. There is a large personal investment because of the depth of the vision. People here work on projects thinking about how the future of commerce will look like 5 years down the line. The focus on long-term goals forces everyone to think big picture and strive to deliver the best in class. No one holds your hand and while there is a lot of support from people around you, once you join Salt you become the expert of your area and are encouraged to lead the rest of the company with that expertise.

SaltPay is the core definition of "ownership". When you join the company, you do not join a specific role, you join an area, with a mission. Your mission helps to solve a complex problem, that will lead us to achieve our ultimate goal: empower the small and medium merchant through technology and strong care. You are the owner of your mission. Especially, for the outcome that your actions provide! The more you deliver to Salt, the more you will get from it. The most meritocratic environment I have ever worked for.

Candour rules this company. If you cannot deal with good and structured (based on data) feedback, then you probably won't thrive in our adventure. No bullsh**. That's the motto. Say it as it is, that's one of our values. We maintain a direct and open line of communication with all of our leaders and Salters on a weekly basis.
