Lots of employees leaving because

Pros

Some really talented, cool, individual contributor folks. Liked hanging out with everyone.

Cons

There is no product roadmap. There is no strategy. What they call a product roadmap is actually a backlog of cool ideas that no one besides maybe 5 people are allowed to see. The arbitrary backlog of features are prioritized based on how cool or marketable it sounds. The Product Managers are actually Project Managers. Very top down, waterfall approach to building products. They actively refuse to hire capable product managers, either because the existing top PM feels threatened or because they don't know what good product management is. Design and engineering end up having to pick up the product management slack. A lot of decisions are made based on C.Y.A. as opposed to product or business goals.

Pros

Good pay People used to be very friendly

Cons

Everything changed recently as management changed. Hypergrowth and at the same time laying off people only within 2 months /3 months Right left firing people. Leadership from Amazon trying to impose Amazonian culture everywhere. Leadership doesn't have any direction not doing anything other than pushing people. Serious Gender issues with the new management

Good start with more room to grow

Pros

It's great working in an innovative space with an intelligent group of people. I generally enjoy the people I work with. They do seem to really care about the company's values here, which mostly feel people-first. The company has done very well in supporting teams during Covid. Remote work transition was seamless, and the company does a good job at communicating those updates and creating a "we're in this together" mentality. The company seems invested long-term in accessibility to crypto for many people. In the short term would be nice to see this start to broaden beyond the typical in-group crypto user.

Cons

The leadership team seems like a pretty homogenous group -- maybe with the best intentions, but they don't know what they don't know (and there is plenty of stuff to know beyond hyper-crypto focus). I know they're actively working on more diversity across the company, but they should definitely focus on diversity at decision-making levels. Cross-functional communication feels disjointed at times. Sometimes you're not sure whether your goals and ideas are in line with or overlapping with goals of other teams.
