Pros

The office and other perks aren't bad?

Cons

There are a number of issues with the company. Let's start from the top with the my way or the highway CEO. If you want to be micro-managed and work in a company that breeds toxicity, One Esports is the perfect textbook example of it. Rumors of sexual harassment? Substantiated and ignored? Check. Not only is it bad in the One Esports arm, but it's also more of the same in the One Championship sector.

Great team - but terrible leadership

Pros

The most friendly and talented team I have ever worked with, so much you can learn from your colleagues. The crème de la crème in the esports industry. Decent (albeit not great) compensation.

Cons

Unfortunately, all of this is completely made void by the atrocious management, led by a CEO who not only is completely clueless on how to properly lead his team, but managed to burn through the entire seed round acquired in 2018 without giving the company a proper direction. On top of that, his rude, aggressive personality alienated most employees - which ended up with a bunch of people leaving (my case) - as well as potential business partners. Current employees (with whom I maintain frequent contact with) are also very dissatisfied but in these hard times, they don't want to risk upsetting a volatile CEO, so they simply have no choice but to stand up with everything he does. Finally, the CEO brought in his girlfriend at the start of 2019 - initially to help with Biz Dev. She however "surprisingly" quickly grew inside the company, and is know considered a "Co-founder" (despite the company itself having been founded in 2016). He also brought his mother to manage finances and HR... Overall, a complete mess of a company, and I feel for so many talent people stuck under the paws of a tyrant.
