Pros
- I absolutely love the people. We have so much fun together and enjoy each others' company as people. From hiking outings to happy hours to monthly catered birthday lunches and more, I have never enjoyed working with a group of people more. - It's great to be in a booming industry that is growing exponentially, especially when most other industries seem to be retracting. It's never a dull day, and it's really cool to be on the forefront of one of the most important industries of our time. - I really enjoy the work I do, I've had a lot of autonomy, and I feel like my ideas and work output are valued and respected. I wake up excited to come to work and tackle the day's challenges. - It feels good to be on a winning team. We have consistently smashed our goals, including crazy stretch goals, and we continue to perform. I feel like it's relatively rare to have such a fun but also success-oriented culture, and I think DCB has this on lock.
Cons
- We're growing fast and the market is evolving fast, and sometimes it can feel like whiplash. Working here means you have to be okay with a very fast-paced environment. There is more work than there are hours in the day, and you likely won't ever feel "on top" of everything. I personally thrive in this kind of environment, but I can see this as a con for others. - Because we are a global company headquartered in London with offices teammates in APAC and the Americas, I work strange hours each week, including having 7 am Monday meetings and 9 pm Wednesday meetings. But on the flip side that means I have flex time I can take during the day for personal matters, which comes in handy. It works well for me, but most of my friends think I'm crazy for working such wild hours.
