Pros: -remote position (work from home). -learning new and cutting edge technologies. -very security focused. In my past experience, companies talked about security, yet didn't really practice it. When you start at Kraken, they give you a great orientation course on security, and it also helps you in your personal life to be more aware of keeping your data secure. Much thanks to the company for this! -working with and learning from a lot of smart people. -great healthcare benefits. If you have no dependents, they pay all or most of the benefits for you. With dependents: based on my past experience with other companies, it's still the most affordable, so you are spending less out of your paycheck on that. -option to get paid fully or partially in bitcoin, if desired. -good areas for growth in company. -feel like the company is making a positive difference in the world. -strong and well known exchange. -global company, so you meet co-workers from around the world.

Cons: -401k offering and company they use is a bit disappointing. Would love to see them partner with a company like Fidelity for this instead. -salary is lower than I initially expected (but is still reasonable). A note on this, though: since working from home, you spend less on gas for commuting, less time for traveling, and less eating out for lunch. So you end up saving money and time in those ways. Plus I imagine this criticism really varies from person to person; in the end, I accepted the offer and decided to work here, and am giving the company a high rating. -sometimes people are not responsive to inquiries, such as help with a task, or getting information to make sure you are doing things properly. Most people are busy so it's understandable, but because most of the company is remote, it can be challenging for some.

Pros: - This company is doing the right thing on so many levels. Summing it up; they are doing 'good' for 'goodness' sake. - Working with the most talented & passionate people in the digital asset space. - Providing an opportunity for ideologically driven individuals to make a real impact in an important industry. - Fast-growing company with opportunities for advancement into new and unique roles.

Cons: - Typical growing pains of a fast-growing company. - Not much patience for potentially strong human assets to prove their value to the company. Unless you are a 'rock star' out of the gate, you need not apply.

Pros: As a firm believer in the potential of Bitcoin (BTC) to make the world a better place, I am thrilled to share my experience working at Kraken. One of the most striking aspects of Kraken is its commitment to meritocracy. The company fosters an environment where employees are encouraged to take initiative, think creatively, and contribute their unique skills and talents. Performance and contributions are recognized and rewarded. The people at Kraken are truly amazing. I have had the pleasure of working with some of the brightest and most passionate individuals in the industry. The team is diverse, inclusive, and collaborative, and there is a genuine sense of camaraderie among colleagues. Everyone is dedicated to the company's mission and works passionately to achieve our shared goals. The leadership team is approachable and supportive, and they are always open to new ideas and feedback. In addition to the generous PTO policy, the remote work infrastructure is robust, and the company has invested in the tools and technology needed to ensure seamless collaboration and communication among team members. In conclusion, my time at Kraken has been incredibly rewarding and fulfilling. I am proud to be part of a company that is making a positive impact on the world through its support of Bitcoin and its dedication to creating a fair and inclusive financial system. I wholeheartedly recommend Kraken to anyone who shares our passion for cryptocurrency and our vision for a better future.

Cons: I do think that I could make a better base salary elsewhere. That's not to say that the salaries here aren't good/competitive - but there are other companies I have seen recently offering that bit more.
