About the company

Finanzguru is a German personal finance app built by dwins GmbH, focused on helping people understand spending, subscriptions, and financial decisions in one place. The company also runs an insurance-focused product area, with roles that blend fintech and regulated insurance operations. Public company updates around major funding describe a business that has moved beyond “tiny startup” and into a scaling phase. Hiring spans tech and insurance support, with a strong emphasis on remote-first work.

Locations and presence

Finanzguru lists Frankfurt am Main as a company address, and public funding coverage has referenced an additional site in Nuremberg. Many roles are advertised as 100% remote, often requiring residency in Germany, Spain, or Portugal.

Palpable Score

65.1

/ 100

Finanzguru looks like a reasonable place for an early-career hire who wants remote work, clear benefits, and a fairly well-described application journey. The score is held back by a thin pipeline of clearly junior roles on the official job list at the time of review, plus limited public proof of promotions or structured progression for juniors.

Pillar 1: Early-career access

Score

12.8

/ 20

The company’s official jobs page is currently weighted toward experienced hiring (for example a senior backend role and insurance roles asking for prior experience), which narrows obvious 0–3 year entry points.
Finanzguru has visible student and working-student signals in public employer feedback categories, which suggests the company does hire alongside study rather than only post-graduation.
The company’s LinkedIn job mix includes a meaningful “entry level” slice, but the company does not consistently label “Junior” or “Graduate” roles on the main careers flow, so early-career discovery is harder than it should be.

Pillar 2: Hiring fairness and transparency

Score

14.0

/ 20

The company publishes an “Interview Journey” with four concrete steps (application, internal check, conversations, offer), which sets expectations better than most startups.
Finanzguru runs applications through Greenhouse and role pages include specific responsibilities and requirements, which reduces ambiguity for first-time applicants.
The company has mixed candidate feedback in public interview logs, including reports of slow or missing responses, which pulls down confidence in consistent candidate care.

Pillar 3: Learning and support

Score

13.8

/ 20

The company lists a Weiterbildung budget plus a separate Lesebudget, which are practical learning supports a junior can actually use.
Finanzguru also offers a home-office budget and remote-first setup, which helps early-career hires build a workable environment without paying upfront costs.
The company does not clearly publish mentorship, buddying, or review cadence as part of onboarding, so learning support still looks benefit-led rather than manager-led.

Pillar 4: Pay fairness and stability

Score

13.0

/ 20

The company publishes at least one role with a clear salary range (for example Sales Support at €38,000–€48,000), which is a strong transparency signal compared with “competitive” wording.
Finanzguru advertises remote eligibility rules and location constraints up front (for example residency requirements for DE, ES, or PT), which reduces the risk of late-stage surprises for early-career candidates.
The company does not consistently show salary ranges across roles, so pay fairness cannot be checked role-by-role and the score is capped by missing evidence.

Pillar 5: Early-career outcomes

Score

11.5

/ 20

The company has strong overall sentiment on a major German employer-review site, including a high recommendation rate over the last two years and a substantial number of reviews, which is a positive retention proxy.
Finanzguru’s public LinkedIn hiring footprint shows repeat hiring and a visible entry-level share, which hints that junior-capable roles exist beyond one-off postings.
The company does not publish outcome metrics like internship-to-offer conversion, promotion timelines, or 12–24 month retention for early-career hires, which limits how confidently this pillar can score.
