Where Blockchain Tech Dreams Go to Die...quickly

Pros

I would have to agree with others, not one thing. If free food and feeding frenzies are your thing this is the place for you. Standing desks big deal, most employers have these in the year 2021.

Cons

Hiring and firing practices are questionable to say the least, they go through people like toilet paper. Then battle it out it for unemployment. Ironic for a billionaire to waste time and resources on those who simply had the misfortune of working there, not surprising in light of a recent newspaper article. Nepotism....yep you betcha! If you do take a job here learn the key players and keep friendly but close lipped they will be looking to fire you regardless of what you bring to the table. Encouraged to participate in team building exercises only instilling a bogus sense of unity by playing “fun games” and as well as other activities... Not everyone wants to play these team building games. Its an awkward show of sportsmanship by most who fake it, as how could it not be in a toxic and bizarre work environment? Just brings added tension. Can attest that half the employees shown in pics have been fired or left voluntarily.

Pros

Most of the coworkers are pretty outstanding, PTO is nice, free lunch two days a week. Jeff is a pretty great man, he's got a vision, just hope they can get it done for him.

Cons

A bit unethical, a bit of nepotism, nothing that hasn't already been said. Strives to be a "startup" with a corporate management structure. Alienation is to persevere in this environment. Lacks thorough scrutiny on ideas, time wasted on fruitless research rabbit-holes. After almost 5 months, a proper Macbook still hadn't arrived. Don't mind working on a 3+ year old machine, but c'mon, why is it hard to buy an updated Macbook (when computing power equals productivity for us devs) if you can buy 67k acres of land and a bank at the flicka da wrist? For being a "blockchain" company, a handful of people there have been in cryptocurrency for more than a year or two. Simply the result of the Ethereum / Bitcoin "HODL" booms.

Pros

Coworkers. Free lunch 2 days per week.

Cons

PTO is only 10 days per year. Benefits are non-existent for those with families. Nothing in place to protect Maternity/Paternity leave. Management is unethical. Nepotism. Dismissive HR department. Arbitrary firings.
