Pros

Working for Kraken was an incredible experience as it prioritized remote work and offered excellent benefits such as competitive salary, stock options, and bonuses.

Furthermore, the team I collaborated with was truly exceptional, and I relished every moment of my time there.

Cons

Although I acknowledge that Kraken values security and their sudden layoff decision was likely a precautionary measure, I felt it was slightly unjustified in our case. Our team was exceptional and high-performing, and we could have easily been transferred to other departments within the company, but instead, they decided to lay off 8 people out of 11.

However, I hold no grudges and highly recommend Kraken as an employer. If given the opportunity, I would readily return to work with them. Nevertheless, it's important to note that while Kraken is an excellent company, the industry is currently facing significant challenges, so its stability may be uncertain.
