Pros

The people who are no longer there were exceptional. I learned a lot from everyone. Great pay and benefits. Monthly stipends.

Cons

This company attempted to grow way to fast for being involved in something so volatile like crypto. We had about 15 frontend developers working on one product which is way too many, especially as a crypto start-up. Felt like we were racing to get a product out there. While being told having years of runway and that our jobs were secure after crypto starting falling over Summer, 80% of the company were let go by the end of November.

Pros

I've been at Path for two years; honestly, it's been excellent for my career. It's rare to find a job where you believe in what you're doing and even rarer to work with people who get it and are pushing for the same things. At Path, we're all about making crypto accessible and positive for everyone, and it's cool to be part of that. What stands out to me is the vibe here—everyone, from my teammates to the leadership, is always looking for new ideas and opportunities. We don't settle for how things are just because that's how they've always been. And I genuinely look forward to work every day. It's more than just a job; it feels like we're all in this together, trying to do something different and better. Working here has shown me that when you're surrounded by people who hustle and aren't satisfied with the status quo, it's extremely rewarding.

Cons

I’m genuinely happy at Path and don't have any cons, however it’s fair to share a couple of things for anyone considering joining. First off, remember it’s a startup. That means unlike big, established companies with set paths, we’re more like a speedboat in the crypto waters. We have to make quick turns and decisions to stay on course, which can feel a bit hectic if you’re not used to it. The pace here matches the fast-moving nature of cryptocurrency itself—decisions and changes happen quickly to adapt to the market.
