Pros

The salaries and stock were above average. The colleagues were kind and fun to work with As an international company, people respected each other's working schedule

Cons

The work itself was not fulfilling. Experimental directions or projects were shut down too frequently. The management did not properly appreciate the value of lifelong learning. The opportunities for real career growth were lacking. Finally, the company and some employees were fixated on bitcoin too much, trying to justify the environmental damage of a zero-sum game in an echo chamber.
