Is this a bug or is it real? Everyone is saying that Otto is the new European amazon but it doesn’t seems like that. (I am already buying from allegro but they don’t have this product in stock)

    It’s 2025, and 90% of all software devs in Hamburg have worked for Otto at some point, and they still can’t get their shit together.

    I’d put money on that being a dumpster fire of a workplace - the kind where turnover is very high, everyone is constantly busy putting out fires with slapped together solutions, and if anyone tries to do anything that might prevent future fires they get shouted at for not putting out fires.

      No, they actually got a pretty good reputation. They’re a big corporation with probably hundreds of devs in their HQ. It’s not unlikely that a whole bunch of devs came into town specifically because of them or were hired straight out of university.

        If they are like that and not dystopian as an employer they would be the big exception in that size category.
