Pros
The people I worked with at ChatID were great: good attitudes, strong work ethic, collaborative. The use case is a very strong and their technology is competitive. The spirit of the culture and values statements are good.
Cons
1) The founders have no experience running a business and, while they claim to look for people with experience to help grow the business, they do not trust or listen to the input those people provide. When these people did their jobs and called attention to the fact that the founders weren't listening, they were fired. 2) There was also no transparency from the CEO and CTO. 3) There was a strange reluctance to hire any engineering management, leaving the junior (but talented) engineers floating without technical guidance. 4) Senior management touted the values outlined for the company but absolutely did not live them.
