Misleading, Shady, and No Career Path

Anonymous employee

Pros

1. No micro-management (Because management does not know what they are doing) 2. Start-up environment 3. Multiple-monitor setup

Cons

1. Hired via their "front" company XJCP Limited, which is supposedly an "IT Consultancy", but in reality, this is to evade paying capital gain taxes in Hong Kong for their true business ventures in crypto. 2. They claimed that they are only conducting proprietary trading, but in reality they are a crypto-heavy business, and they are not licensed in Hong Kong. 3. There is no clear career path 4. Company has complex ownership structure 5. They use 50+ special purpose vehicles incorporated in tax heavens such as BVI, Cayman Islands, or Seychelles for "proprietary trading / investment" purposes. 6. Nominee shareholders / Shadow directors 7. Co-founders claimed that they are business opportunists, so there are no one specific business line that they focus on.
