Pros

- Very hardworking colleagues from the product engineering and design teams who are willing to help get things through even in a very short notice - Pretty decent perks and benefits: weekday meal allowances, rental reimbursement, learning budget, gym allowances etc. - Average or slightly above compensation compared to the rest of the crypto industry

Cons

- Lack of respect and empathy towards colleagues and working counterparts - Unusually long working hours are expected from the team - Lack of knowledge transfer and transparency - Strong emphasis on organisational hierarchy where people make presumption about one's capability based on the seniority - Very bad cross-team collaboration, teams are almost working in complete silos - Close minded and shortsighted product visions from the product leaders - Misaligned product visions with the company overall goals - Very poor product planning and prioritisation - Very poor awareness of regulatory and compliance affairs - Difficult for non-mandarin speakers to contribute at large as most working counterparts do not converse well in english

Pros

- Complimentary food and drinks in the office - Some co-workers are working hard and friendly - Hybrid work that can work 2 days from home

Cons

- The company experienced hiring followed by layoffs, which raised concerns about workforce planning. - No severance package, career transition assistance, or visa support was provided following the layoff, which negatively impacted the perception of the company's employee culture. - There was a tendency to assign blame rather than focus on collaborative problem-solving.
