Pros
Most people are hard-working in teams.
Cons
Upon joining I was left bitter and disappointed. Why? Because I passed my interview and we agreed my salary. After passing my two-week trial, I was told my role had now changed, so I will have to take a $10k pay cut. The classic bait and switch. Unfortunately, even though I was hired to manage the community, all my time was spent on social media, such as writing posts and copywriting for podcasts because they laid off over half the marketing team. So, just because they hire you for a particular role, don't expect that you will be doing it. It got worse as well. Their senior leadership had the bright idea to move the social media department underneath the editorial department, meaning we had journalists managing the marketing department. My role was brought abruptly to an end. A colleague and I had a minor dispute about a work task. I won't get into the details, but it ended up getting passed on to management. What happened? My access to Slack, Discord, Google, you name it, it all got revoked straightaway. I received no response at all from management about what was happening or on what grounds. It was the evening of the following day when I got an email saying my role had been terminated. What I found shocking was that I had been terminated over a minor dispute, without any attempt on their part to resolve the issue or to even listen to both sides. I was never given a chance to defend myself. What is interesting though is that they have been recently making large layoffs, and I suspect this was a convenient opportunity for them to save a bit more cash. Therefore, given the unscrupulous management practices at work here, I would urge people to think twice before joining Cointelegraph.
