Pros
Good benefits and ok pay
Cons
CEO bragged publicly about 'dumping on plebs' on Twitter. Lots of Messari employees were affected by the prevalent criminality in crypto - savings hacked and laundered, rug pulled, or funds lost in FTX/Celsius etc. Then laid off in a recession and implosion of the industry. Imagine being a worker thinking you're contributing to expand financial inclusion to the disenfranchised and getting punched in the gut when your savings get hacked and your CEO is bragging on Twitter about "dumping" on the working class. Yikes. There are many workers in crypto who feel this way and it's really sad. There's no words for it and truly no other industry in the world that screws over their own or those it pretends to help this bad. Better to not get involved in this "industry" if we can even call it that. If you want to build a 'real' career... this isn't it. Time to eat a bit of humble pie... this is not a legitimate, professional industry and frankly it doesn't deserve 'mass adoption.' It would be best for society if were regulators were to shut the industry down as they are thankfully.
