Feeling the satisfaction of pushing for great

Elisa Bohne. Staff Product Designer - Spend controls

Elisa says

“The rebrand could have been a new logo and a fresh coat of paint. Instead, we used it to rethink how the product works, from everyday navigation to the login and export pages and a brand new accounting dashboard. Looking back, I still can’t quite believe we pulled it off.

It took nerve, and a lot of trust. I pushed us to go beyond a reskin, and the brand team backed me to run with it. We rebuilt the global navigation with the Design System team and engineering, making decisions fast.

What makes it worth it is knowing it makes finance teams’ everyday work easier, and that new people at Pleo now find a structure that makes sense. It changed how Pleo works, not just how it looks.

What I loved most was how closely brand and product worked together. Rebrands often stop at the marketing site, and the product catches up years later. This time, the new Pleo showed up everywhere at once. I started my career in brand design before moving into product, so seeing the two come together like this has been one of the most rewarding things I’ve worked on.”

Raising the bar for each other

Nicolai Strung Møller. Senior Manager, Sales - Mid market

Nicolai says

“Performance at Pleo used to be measured on output alone. Now we look at how we achieve results too, and being a high performer is more nuanced. Numbers and championing the customer still matter, but so does how we show up cross-functionally and with our teams. The bar is high, and it’s clear, well supported and recognised.

I’ve been lucky enough to attend two Champions Clubs for high performers in Go-to-Market. It isn’t a traditional president’s club where attendance depends purely on numbers. It makes me proud that our Chief Revenue Officer recognises contributions beyond the quota, like a sales lead who stepped up to cover an extra team, or account managers who showed exceptional grit and consistency. Cross-functional collaboration is recognised too, bringing in Pleo people who support the sales org.

Being in a room of people raising the bar means we all raise it for each other. As ambitions rise, expectations rise too, and things sometimes have to change. We need to make sure people understand what that means for them, so they can keep doing great work. Pleo is set up well for that, with a foundation of care for each other, curiosity, and the confidence to share views and accept new perspectives. That’s what keeps our performance culture strong, and it’s what makes this a great place to be a high performer.”

Leading a product team through trust and curiosity

Sabrina Qian. Director, Product - Payments

Sabrina says

“Leading a product team at Pleo feels different from anywhere I’ve led before, mainly because of the trust I’m given. I’m trusted to make my own judgement calls and decisions, and that autonomy means I’ve had to get better at owning outcomes rather than waiting for direction. The leaders around me share that mindset. They’re passionate about their roles, genuinely curious, and open to new ideas, challenges and real collaboration. What surprised me most is how kind the environment is. Mistakes are treated as things to learn from, not occasions for judgement or blame, which has made it easier to take risks, say when I’m unsure, and push my own thinking further. Working here has sharpened my ability to lead through trust and clear ownership rather than control, and I’ve learned as much about my own leadership style as I have about my teams. For anyone thinking about joining as a leader, I’d say you’re asked to bring your own judgement and your curiosity, and in return you’re given room to use both.”

Stockholm

Our Stockholm office is a cosy place to work. There's plenty of bike storage since many of us cycle in, and we're all big fans of Thursday fika, a classic Swedish snack we enjoy every week.

Lisbon

Lisbon is Pleo's liveliest office. With multiple floors, dedicated social spaces and a rooftop terraza, it offers plenty of space for our Portugal-based team to collaborate and spend time together, during and after work.

Flexible working

We offer flexibility where it makes sense for your role and goals, rather than imposing a one-size-fits-all policy

Remote friendly

We have a mix of hybrid, fully on-site and remote roles, as you’ll see in our role descriptions. The majority are hybrid and require a small amount of office time. There’s no company-wide policy on the number of days you should come in on a hybrid contract. It depends how you and your team work best.

Adaptable hours

Standard hours are set by your market and role, but you can agree flexibility with your manager. As long as you’re delivering great work and around for regular meetings with your team, nobody will be scrutinising your calendar or tracking your breaks. We measure outcomes, not hours.

Work from abroad

We offer temporary location flexibility for all roles, which is a great way to make your holidays go further. For up to 8 weeks per year, you’re welcome to pack up your laptop and work from anywhere with a WiFi connection, as long as it’s pre-agreed with your manager and doesn’t create risk for your team.

From Claude licence to fluency: how we’re making AI count

Handing out licences is easy. Hear from Miriam and Ermis about how they focus on making sure everyone at Pleo can use their licence wisely.

Rolling out a tool like Claude to 750-plus people takes an afternoon of admin. Building AI fluency and making it useful for everyone takes a lot more care. Ultimately, our goal isn’t adding a tool, it’s giving people time back for their craft, so they can apply the brilliant judgement we hired them for, and surprise themselves with what they’re able to achieve here.

One approach can’t fit every team

Pleo has employees spread out across Europe and beyond, all with different crafts, technical capabilities and needs. A developer, a people partner, and someone in customer experience all use AI differently, and each has different risks to watch for. Our AI enablement programme combines tailored support with central coordination to keep everything joined up.

Where support needs to be tailored to how our different teams work, we have champions representing different departments (we call these functions) at Pleo who act as a local bridge to adoption. Employees across different teams have someone to turn to who can connect general guidance to specific use cases and help with questions and blockers, because they understand the work.

Alongside our function champions, our technical teams focus on making sure the tools we use work reliably and safely, while a cross-functional team supports bringing in new Model Context Protocol (MCP) connectors. With their knowledge of the tools, laws and regulations, they help get connections up and running and ensure each connector goes through the right technical and security teams, so no team is left to handle this alone.

Our central team helps local successes become company-wide practices through the AI Hub, learning opportunities, cross-functional office hours, and reusable workflows.

Learning where people already gather

Long structured courses or a series of in-person training days don’t suit our pace or ambition to build an AI-fluent culture. We want people to learn context-specific skills, find ways to apply them straight away, and immediately notice the difference in their work.

Ongoing learning happens in moments our teams already share. People share experiments and useful patterns in their function meetings. Alongside these we host practical sessions on themes such as using AI as a second brain, codifying your work, and building an AI Chief of Staff.

Offsites and hackathons give teams a space to dream up AI solutions for problems they actually face day-to-day. At a recent offsite in Lisbon, our Enablement functions ran an AI hackathon to redesign parts of the employee journey, and within a week of getting home, a few of those ideas were already in our workflows.

Keeping judgement human

Claude is a useful tool for gathering context, preparing a first draft and improving workflows, but it can’t transform how we work on its own. We need the people behind each craft to bring the expertise and judgement that make the result good. Some examples from across Pleo:

  • an engineering manager connecting Claude, Slack, and their calendar to propose changes to a busy week;
  • a Claude skill that turns fragmented engineering signals into a shared radar on customer frictions;
  • customer and meeting information brought together to prepare call briefs and draft follow-ups for an account owner to review;
  • and a People agent that supports the comparison work for our new levelling system, while people make the final decisions.

Enabling AI with care

As a regulated business we build privacy, security, and responsible access into how we enable AI. Our legal, security, and technical teams assess use cases, review integrations and keep guidance current as the technology and regulations evolve. That means our teams are confidently using approved integrations with appropriate permissions, and can have use cases reviewed by raising a ticket in Slack.

We also want AI usage to deliver real business value, with spending that is visible and proportionate. We help businesses manage their spend, so we’re mindful of our own. Token allowances help us manage costs. We share practical guidance on getting value from the tools, and when someone needs more budget, a simple request form captures what they want to achieve, which company goals it supports and the impact they expect. That helps us unblock promising work while keeping a clear link between AI spend and business value.

What comes next

We’re still learning what works, and for whom. A recent employee survey showed us that 84% of our employees feel AI is relevant to their work, and over 90% of employees feel at least moderately confident in using it. We still have just under 50% of employees who are asking for more support. Right now, we’re seeing great signals that Pleo’ers are starting to feel confident using AI to take away repetitive or cumbersome tasks, beginning to reshape workflows and sharpen their focus on their craft. Next, our focus is to continue building on that while consciously moving from access and adoption to building AI-native workflows, measurable impact and value creation, and deeper capabilities.

What we’re hearing from our people:

“I’m AI first with a portfolio of skills in Claude Code that helps me deliver quality work consistently and at speed.” (AI Pulse survey respondent)

“AI adoption needs more than tools. It needs clear strategy, technical support, leadership and protected time to learn and experiment.” (AI Pulse survey respondent)

Performance and reward

We reward great work, independently of whether a promotion or role change makes sense. We’d rather see you master your craft than push you to climb a ladder.

Regular 1-on-1s

You’ll have scheduled check-ins with your manager to discuss your development and set goals. These conversations help us keep performance front and centre throughout the year.

Mid-year Performance Pulse

Twice a year, you and your manager sit down to check your progress and identify development opportunities for the next six months.

Salary review

We review salaries for every role annually, taking into account external benchmarks and your performance. You’ll have dedicated time every year to discuss a potential pay increase.

Results plus values

We assess performance on both what you achieve and how you achieve it: whether you’re showing up for your team and embodying Pleo’s values. This keeps us all working as one.

Learning and development

We believe the best growth happens when talented people work alongside each other, so we make space for peer-led learning as well as structured development opportunities.

Onward movement

We support you to develop your career at Pleo beyond the traditional ladder, whether you want to move diagonally or horizontally to another team, or forward in your current craft.

Learning budget

You’ll get a 150€ personal learning budget to spend on educational materials, every year. Plus: benefit from a larger learning fund for strategic needs, directed by your manager.

Social learning

Managers provide frequent feedback, rather than saving growth conversations for performance reviews. You’ll learn every day from expert colleagues who are kind with their time.

Leadership development

If you’re moving into management, you’ll benefit from an internal training program, designed around scenario-based leadership: real examples rather than abstract theory.

Getting together

Pleo hires team players. We know the value of in-person moments, and come together when we can to strengthen our connections.

Team camps

A few times per year, members of each area or function come together for a multi-day workshop and social.

Company rituals

Standing appointments to share work and updates in a larger group, including All Hands and Quarterly Business Reviews.

Socials

We host winter and summer gatherings, as well as regular team meals and drinks events at our offices.

Communities

Teammates often set up communities based around hobbies and interests they share with other Pleo’ers.
