Honeypot is pushing for lowest possible salaries; they outright reject you for wanting 100k EUR jobs even if you held such positions before. They are more like agency for startups wanting cheap labor to quickly burn through. Mind you, German startups rarely give you equity, bypass labor laws (small sizes), pay low and expect insane dedication.

They are also guilty of posting fake job offers to work at Honeypot, just to let you know later that "we already have candidates at an advanced stage of our hiring process." (one day after the offer being published)

"However, you know, Honeypot is a tech focused career platform and we currently have a number of positions that match your profile."

I'd avoid them

Besides the equity, that sounds like every other startup around the world.
Yes, but regular German companies have a very hard time getting rid of any employees, whereas for small-sized companies there is much more flexibility. So you get all drawbacks of US startups, but 0 shot at becoming rich.
