Pros

Not a lot pros, remote company maybe

Cons

CEO dictates everyone around. No other opinions are voiced. People who have an opinion other than CEO and voice it get fired very fast. CEO is unpredictable and changes opinion all the time as such the company doesn't progress. No notice period when you get fired (and you will get fired of rediculous reasons if CEO has a bad day and is emotionally). Salary is a joke and you will get cheated on your money by wrong promises (they will pay you half in NRG which they manipulate the price, so you only get paid half of what they promise if you are lucky). Promises are wrong and they don't respect people working for them; their attitude is because they pay you a bit of money that gives them permission to treat you badly. E.g. they make fun of you (joke around your back) if new joiners believe they will get paid the amount they got promised during the interview. All capable people have left the company or got fired and the people who join such a toxic environment are usually new to the job market. They have at least 3 full time recruiters as they need to re-fill all the people that have left (got fired). At a size of less than 10 people (many people on their socials/reviews/company website don't exist or don't work for them anymore), the recruitment department is a quite big part of what makes out that company. Most of the reviews with 5 stars are written by managment or paid for (same for their social media accounts). They spend a lot of money on fake social media present/reviews.

Pros

Everything about Energi sets us apart from any other organization I have ever been associated with. Energi was founded from a place of love and it certainly shows in every aspect of the corporate culture - from the work/life balance it provides to our deep caring of our community members and our desire to keep them safe. We are on the cutting edge of an emerging technology with the potential to change the world. We are making the world a better place through Energi Impact, our own self-funded charity. Even though we are distributed around the world every member of the team is like family, and we all have a strong passionate desire to reach the organizations goals. The sky is the limit with the advancement opportunities available. Energi is a meritocracy and we value self-starters and strong leaders. If you can set and achieve your own goals, don't need to have your hand held, and show strong leadership potential, this is the place for you.

Cons

The only con I can think of is the fact that due to being a decentralized team which is spread out all over the world, team members work different hours of the day. This can cause a delay if you need to wait for another team member before you can complete a task. However, those who are good at multitasking won't find this to be much of a problem because you can work on other tasks while waiting for what you need from the other team member.
