There's a reason why recruiters at Spotify jokingly referred to Klarna as "our relocation agency". Klarna would relocate folks to Stockholm who'd then leave within 6 months to a year once they realised the shitshow they signed up for.
This was in 2015. They didn't value people back then or care to treat folks with the tiniest amount of decency. Seems not much has changed.
- dcminter 4y agoThere was a corresponding joke at Klarna that Spotify was part of the natural promotion path.
- greenwithenvy 4y agoThat's fascinating. But generally when people feel like the best way to advance their career is to leave, then I don't think that joke works in Klarna's favour as much as they might think it does.
- dcminter 4y agoI don't think anyone thought it did.
- d-trieu 4y agoNot just at Spotify, at both of my previous jobs we were joking about picking up Klarna employees that has managed to disconnect from the Matrix.
