Circle

• Good benefits compared to other companies.
• They don't cut pay/salary based on location/cost of living, which is a great thing.
• Exposure of crypto and you learn a lot.
• Company mission seems good.

• Work weekends more than normal, if you gonna interview with them, make sure to ask how many hours they expect you to work at weekends on average in a month (not every weekend but once every couple of weeks).

• Condescending individuals in positions of power, unpleasant people to meet. Some of the worst coworkers and individuals I had the misfortune to meet and work with here.

• Some people get promotions because they are the gaming buddy of the manager rather than merit. People that are ignorant or that do not deserve it get authority and screw the long-term goals of the company.

• Some groups have multiple managers but no actual leaders, there are teams that seem to have 2 managers, but there is no actual lead. So they delegate managing tasks to condescending individuals that have no touch with people and treat people like they were dumb.

• Management seems to be ok with people using expletive language during meetings, at some point insulting other coworkers. When reporting it nothing was done since it was also a gaming buddy.

• There is a lack of a process for onboarding.

• Too many meetings. Half a day will go into meetings, then they expect you to finish your tasks and exclude the time of the meetings.

Establish better career paths, and try to watch if management is actually awarding promotions on merit rather than friendship.

Take complaints seriously. Toxic members of leadership are making employees' day-to-day miserable. But when we bring issues nothing is done.

Make sure employees take training of harassment, using expletive terms and language on meetings just because 90% of the people in the meeting are "buddies" is not ok.
