Pros

Obsessively innovative people, working very hard to build products that might just change the world. Lazar focused to that end. The most brilliant crew I have had the pleasure to work with in some time. Never a dull day. Always iterating. Always learning. Bias to action

Cons

Brilliant minds but all the comes with. Sometimes its hard to keep up. Pace of change and growth can be intense.

Pros

Quickest interview process I've ever been through. Was very impressed that the COO and CTO took the time to explain the company and industry to me during my interview and answered all my questions. The team is very passionate about the work they are doing and the impact it will have on the overall industry! LayerZero has a welcoming company culture and you'll be able to work with the best co-workers. Since it's a small and growing company there are tons of growth opportunities. I've been able to work on many projects outside of my regular job duties. Super excited to get in as an early employee to a company that is so groundbreaking.

Cons

It is a true startup, so be prepared to take on responsibilities that aren't necessarily in your job description!

Pros

Great place to try your hands and politics Wish I could rate zero stars

Cons

Tldr - you've been warned, can't recommend this place even 1%, better to stay unemployed than get a job here In my 16 years of professional career, this is the most mismanaged, run down, horrendous work environment I've seen. 1. The leaders are in their own bubble which is so far away from the reality. 2. Barely 2 people per engineering teams that are carrying the entire group, while severely overworked. 3. No actual work gets done ever, everything gets buried under politics and extremely poor misaligned decisions. 4. The work gets reprioritized several times a day with no clear communication or explanation. 5. Three "God-Tier" engineers make decisions which are always contradictory 6. Other departments besides engineering are almost as screwed 7. HR is NOT your friend more true here than any other place 8. All departments are actively trying to cut headcount post the hack.
