Best combination of cutting edge decentralised tech and flexible work
Pros
Status has core principles that are in line with the founding vision of Ethereum, and they completely stick to it. Status is dedicated to building products and Ethereum infrastructure for the people, that is censorship resistant, transparent, pseudoanonymous, and immutable across the entire Web3 stack: messaging, consensus, and storage. A standout attribute of Status that is different than most companies is that everything, from top to bottom, is completely transparent. As an employee, you get the benefits of: - fully remote and async work environment - flexible hours - great pay (optional crypto pay split) with bonuses in SNT - bleeding edge development on blockchain and decentralised systems - incredible talent pool
Cons
There is a bit of an issue with cohesion across teams, where different teams have different directional concerns (eg some teams are top down driven, where others are more individually driven), communication and information organisational locations/methods, cadence, etc. However, there are bi-weekly townhalls and quarterly strategy meetings that do help to keep everyone at the company in touch with the progress of other teams. In addition, working in some timezones can be a bit isolating (eg APAC).
