Pros

You get to be part of something cool and meaningful. Generally people are nice and easy to work with.

Cons

Zero transparency so staff have no idea what management's doing or where the company's heading to, which is downhill. The change in management saw old white males controlling the company and they have no clue what they are doing. CEO is nowhere to be found. CFO is running the show, sadly he doesn't even know how to use a smartphone. COO is a racist who only thinks highly of himself and calls clients by names I can't repeat here. The company's been in financial problems even before the pandemic. Staff haven't been paid for months. Suppliers/vendors have stopped services due to unpaid bills. Yet management rented a new office in singapore just because CFO doesn't like coworking space and went on hiring spree to hire new people to support himself. In the time of crisis, CEO is missing and there's been zero comms from him.

Pros

Travel - I've gotten to travel around the world as part of my duties which is exactly what I want to be doing Flexibility - I can take time off when I want it and I feel in control of my schedule for the most part. Responsibility - I am in charge of a lot and no one is micromanaging my work. Great people - I am surrounded by smart, mission-driven, low-ego coworkers.

Cons

It's a global team so hours can be funky depending on where you are. I have a lot of responsibility which is two sided of course - it can be overwhelming at times.

Pros

EFL is a fintech company offering a great product to financial institutions in emerging markets. I like the social impact, startup culture, and quality of each and every team member. The product improves access to finance for entrepreneurs and households in Latin America, Asia, Europe and Africa. This company is going places and the attitude of the team makes for a fun place to work. A practical company leveraging the latest in data science and finding what works for clients and team members.

Cons

Not for someone who needs a lot of structure and direction. This company is growing fast and needs you to keep up. There is the promise of exposure to many new technologies and geographies but this is challenging given current demands. Still the company prioritizes looking forward and is open to creative ways to manage your own career.
