Pros

There are a few smart and capable people that I worked with while there.

Cons

From the very beginning of my my employment, it was clear that the owners had no clue what they were doing. Against the ethos of blockchain, they hired mostly people in Utah to work on blockchain tech, many of whom had never worked on something as complex as blockchain technology and quite frankly incapable of it. Excruciatingly slow product release cycles. No one has a start-up mentality. Everyone works as if they're working at a behemoth tech company. Very waterfall development cycle. Things that should have taken a week took months. Software released was buggy and inelegant and often times not what was actually needed. The leadership seems to be more of a cult than independent minds, all ruled by a single person. Eventually, they burned through all the money. Paychecks stopped coming in March 2024. Furloughs happened...then layoffs...then more furloughs...then more layoffs. There is no more product development, just keeping the lights on. Promises that are never fulfilled of some funding coming to catch everyone up on pay. It's really quite sad.
