Pros
- Blockchain was "cool" a few years ago, too bad it isn't anymore - They are good at getting bad Glassdoor reviews removed
Cons
TLDR: management sucks up to clients, makes unrealistic promises, then dumps mountains of work on software engineers for bad pay. AVOID!!!!!! Too many cons to list here. Some include: - business/client facing team doesn't seem to DARE say no to clients - total pushovers - obsequiousness of client facing team leads to unrealistic expectations and promises that cannot be met - The DTCC project was meant to go live AGES AGO yet still hasn't gone live and it is now 2020 - SO FAR behind schedule - tiny stock option grants - terrible motivation for the team - management frequently misleads the team saying that they will do things and then not doing them - most if not all of the early employees left INCLUDING their initial VP of Engineering and Chief Operating Officer - shows they cannot retain talent - AxCore was meant to be open sourced ages ago but still hasn't been - why do you think they don't want people to be able to see the source code? - Terrible place for software engineers - bad code base, none of the engineering team gets a decent say in the best way to build the systems - I would NOT recommend joining here if you are a good software engineer - there are tons of other companies out there with better pay, easier work and better work life balance - Only got 15 days of vacation, 3 personal days and 5 sick days - no explanation of what to do if you are sick more than 5 days in a year - do you get fired? - Very rarely allowed work from home for engineering yet business team can pretty much come and go as they please - Didn't encourage internal candidates to apply for new openings, preferred to seek external candidates - Didn't give any good raises to software engineers
