Pros

I can't recall any pros as I was let go less than 10 workings days after starting.

Cons

Onboarding is a joke - completely unstructured, you complete a short blockchain 101 course that consists of a couple of videos and web articles and then you sit and wait for something to happen without any clear direction. In my case what appeared was a Python AI project, which was a bit of a shock given I haven't written a single line of Python in my life and given I was hired as a NodeJS dev with a clear desire to learn Rust. The cherry on top was when less than a month into the job and basically around 10 workings days after my start I was called into a meeting that was supposedly about discussing the above-mentioned project. There I met two people who I hadn't met at all before who told me that I was being let go. Apparently, more than 20 people were laid off, some of them who had been in the firm less than 2 days. The reason quoted was that clients were leaving and there weren't any new projects. I guess wasting 2 months of my time, having quit my previous job whilst taking care of a year old baby and renovating a new apartment weren't really on their list of priorities when they laid me off. An absolute disgrace of a firm built upon a dying and out-of-hype technology. It's clear that the firm is going down the toilet but at least have the decency to NOT hire people when you expect to let them go in less than a month. I will actively be steering people away from this company.

Pros

Maybe the only good thing is that it's relatively easy to enter the company as they take almost anyone without caring if they are a good fit or not.

Cons

- They push the narrative of being a big group of friends right until the moment you're no longer 100% on their side, then you become just a random person who needs to be thrown away. - They try to manipulate you into taking extra work for no reimbursement what so ever and just a pat on the back - They will actively lie to you about anything just to make them look better - The only way to get your salary up is to be a quiet dog or force their hand with some alternatives - The founders have some carefully selected "close" friends which do their bidding of firing and manipulating people - If you try to complain to the HR team about potential problematic people they'll just tell you to deal with it yourself Overall I'd suggest to try to avoid this company as best as you can if you don't want to just lose your precious time in your life.

Pros

Some good people you can learn from are still there, but they don't give a damn too at this point, coffee is good, nice office spaces, game room is nice.

Cons

There’s honestly no need to write much here. Just read the reviews that are already posted. They paint the picture quite accurately. What’s fascinating is watching the newly appointed “executives” (in a 130-person company, no less) behave like they’re leading some grand corporate revival. There seems to be a genuine belief that they’re rebuilding Lime from the ashes and that everything will soon be amazing again. The only problem is that the people actually doing the work don’t believe it. Most employees are demotivated. Not slightly annoyed, not temporarily tired, but fundamentally checked out. People show up for the pay check while quietly looking for the exit. After the layoffs and the way they were handled, the trust is gone. Company presentations now feel like theather. Pretty slides, lots of buzzwords, very little credibility. What leadership might want to understand is that this didn’t suddenly appear. The explosion just made the smoke visible. The pressure has been building for years. From a developer’s perspective, the situation is particularly absurd. The expectations are extremely high, but the compensation is nowhere near it. There’s constant pressure to deliver, constant urgency, constant context switching. Skill development? Forget it. Instead of growing as an engineer, you become a professional task executor. Whatever lands on your plate, you do it, regardless of whether it helps your career, improves the product, or even makes technical sense. Btw quality of development is not good. There is no stability. Priorities change nonstop, structures get reshuffled every few months, and nothing ever settles long enough for people to actually focus. There’s no breathing but constant noise and the expectation that everyone should keep smiling and nodding. If you question anything or show frustration, suddenly you’re “not aligned with the culture.” That culture, by the way seems to exist mostly in presentations and in the head of a hyper active, fake and sneaky members of the HR team. At this point it feels like the founders abandoned the ship and left it sinking, with leadership that looks more busy explaining things than actually fixing them or hearing people out. Out of the group currently steering the company, maybe one person seems capable of running it or maybe due to his sales nature he is just selling the image, hope it's not that. In conclusion, it was a good company where people really connected and worked on web3 projects - you were PROUD to work there, explored the unknown. Now it's constant mockery. Good job to the best executive managers, you drove the company to the grounds and crushed your people along with tech leads who are appointed as such but actually have no people handling knowledge. Have a glass of cold water. To the good ones left - we talked a lot and I know you will be gone soon too, so see you on the better side.
