Pros

None, do not work for Certik

Cons

Worst job/employe retention I've ever seen, I saw about 80% leave or get fired in the first year. Binance is a big investor for Certik, this causes their management to be super secretive. Absolutely terrible management, little direction for the company. Always lying to employees, told the entire company they were in great financial condition. 3 months later start laying people off.

Pros

It’s a remote company so there’s a lot of flexibility, which is nice. But sometimes it can feel a bit disconnected. Lately though, management seems to be trying more to help people feel connected. They’ve been pretty generous about supporting meetups, which helps a lot. Things weren’t always smooth, but you can tell they’re working on it.

Cons

As with many remote companies, staying fully in sync can be a bit tricky at times.
