Not a place for women. Toxic culture of competitiveness, blame, and bullying.

Pros

- fast-paced web3 startup - huge upside potential, if you have equity and can make it over your cliff and they get funded - ceo + cto are founders that are very involved in day-to-day

Cons

- toxic culture of appeasing the men in charge with vanity metrics - always thinking + talking about their competitors - leadership takes 0 accountability - bullying + gaslighting is the norm - out of touch with the reality of healthy working culture today - regular silencing and abuse of power In the words of one leadership team member: "I don't know why there aren't more women here." And those of another: "I have a wife and beautiful daughter. There is no way I can be sexist."

Pros

(Disclaimer, this is written by Sami - the CEO and co-founder). Transak is a high growth company. The company is doubling in size every month so you will get thrown into the deep end and have lots of responsibility. You will learn a lot more than you would in a big tech company - 1 month of Transak time is like a year in a big company! We have a tech-first culture and believe in empowering engineers to create the best product and automations to scale the company. We are remote-first and trust our team to deliver results - we don't micromanage your time. Because of our transparent culture you will learn about all areas of the company from engineering to marketing to trading and liquidity. You will also be making a measurable impact on one of the most important missions of our generation - accelerating the transition towards blockchain, crypto, and decentralised systems.

Cons

It is an extremely high-paced environment, that is focused on results. We empower all of our team and train them to be the best that they can, but ultimately it is up to you to get results, and this can be tough. Also, because it is a startup, you have to be comfortable with a fast-changing, entrepreneurial, and sometimes loosely defined job description - this can be exciting and stimulating for some, but may be overwhelming for others.
