Pros

I'm in Hong Kong office, people here come from different culture backgrounds. Most of my colleagues are from China mainland and Hong Kong local. Teams here talk and corporate friendly and no unpleasant things such as "Office Politics". What's more, we several work overtime, people usually come to office at 10:00am and leave at around 19:00pm, which is WLB. We have allowance for lunch and dinner so we don't need to pay on ourselves. I'm a software engineer here and engage in the implementation of crypto transaction system. It's a challenge job because a tiny bug may cause huge loss. I was a machine learning engineer before join OKX, so compare with my previous job, I have to be much more careful when coding. Crypto currency and Web3 are new things, but currently hard to be accepted by the government. I don't know the potential of this new industry but the financial technology in crypto is worth learning and interesting. The team lead and mentor I meet are really nice, they are patient and often spend time introducing me the knowledges I have to know in the team. Team members here are distributed in different locations, mainly in China mainland and Hong Kong here, so we always corporate online via the "Lark" app.

Cons

The technology infra here is not perfect and still need improvement. What's more, we have daily meeting, compare with my previous company it seems too frequent.

Pros

- Complimentary food and drinks in the office - Some co-workers are working hard and friendly - Hybrid work that can work 2 days from home

Cons

- The company experienced hiring followed by layoffs, which raised concerns about workforce planning. - No severance package, career transition assistance, or visa support was provided following the layoff, which negatively impacted the perception of the company's employee culture. - There was a tendency to assign blame rather than focus on collaborative problem-solving.
