Pros

Flexible schedule, work from home, good pay, most successful and forefront crypto exchange. Performance is highly valued and reviewed regularly and systematically.

Cons

- Severe lack of transparency. You only know what your team is doing, and you don't know what other teams are out there and how they relate to yours. - Everything is confidential so you cannot view code you depend on like of CICD pipelines for example - Very stressful and high workload, often expected to work weekends - No testing culture - No code review culture, so a lot of low quality, untested code is committed - Technology is rigid and outdated, and because of the way the versioning of components is designed, everything has to move together which is very slow - The vast majority of the tech team is Chinese, with most having very bad english, so if you don't speak it, a lot of communication is done behind your back, and a even if they want to, most colleagues do not feel comfortable communicating with you in english - The sphere of tools and libraries are not familiar to non Chinese - Blame culture - Very hierarchical, leads only care about achieving their goals, and not the benefit of the wider team.

Great company ambition

Pros

Space to develop your own skill. Fast pace and can learn new things. Managers are great in terms of ambition and innovation. Great for someone who is passionate on crypto. Big name in the industry. Flexible working hours

Cons

Normal working hour until 9pm, sometimes need to attend mid night meeting. A bit less professional, and people do not really know the importance of planning. Everything is treated as urgency, and workload management is not there

- Work-life balance is far from being a priority. - The "Asian way" of doing things dominates, chaotic processes at times.
