Totally anecdotal, and probably unrelated, I interviewed for Klarna a few years ago.

Mid process, they sent me some sort of timed bizarre IQ test that the recruiter claims EVERYONE who works there has to take.

That's when I knew that kind of working culture wasn't for me.

A recruiter contacted me aswell and I asked about their salary. They pay 50k euro for juniors in berlin with afaik no stock vesting. How they even manage to get qualified personnel is beyond me, I would expect much more for a fintech with over 3B evaluation

50k in euro's is pretty ok for European developers, no?

I am from munich so my opinion may be skewed, but it is at best very average, as in some no name devshop/consultancy would pay this much(and even they tend to pay more). Nothing I would expext from a Unicorn, but maybe the market in Berlin is THAT different.

In all Western and Northern Europe (except UK and Switzerland), 50K for a junior position sounds about right. It’s around 25K in Southern Europe, and probably less in Eastern Europe.
