Pros

Fantastic - leadership - colleagues - work culture - product category opportunity Very remote work friendly. Values respectful criticism of "ideas" and totally against bashing of competitors. Senior folks bringing decades of leadership experience in all disciplines to set the tone right. Super competitive (top 5%) compensation package.

Cons

Honestly, nada. Remote first is great in 99% of cases. There are a few things you just don't get to know about your colleagues in a zoom first environment. The leadership is determined to do quarterly off-sites at discipline level and company off-sites yearly. As a barely 9 month company, best practices are still being developed. HR folks are well aware and looking into solutions.

Pros

Sui and Walrus are incredible innovations. They are a step towards where Web3 should be. People who work there are generally friendly. Many people in the company seem to be very professional, thoughtful, and full of varying experiences that contributes to a diverse company.

Cons

There can be a culture of fear and uncertainty. The communication can be disingenuous. There seems to be a hostile culture between product and engineering. Management and on-boarding w.r.t. my team was terrible. I often found that I needed to "onboard myself" engaging in a "pull" approach as opposed to a "push" approach. While asynchronous collaboration is promoted, it felt like you were bothering people, often. My "on-boarding buddy" was more of a router, than an oracle, which often resulted in more routing to other people.
