Pros

-The people working at TGB are passionate, kind, and incredible. They believe in what they do and care about each other. If you want to find a team that welcomes you and you want to work among the best, TGB offers that. -The benefits are great. If you can stay (in reality, if the company chooses to keep you on) you can be rewarded in the long run. -Flexible schedule & work location

Kontras

-Your passion and hard work never matter. Ask this company about their turnover rate, about how they've lost so many people and why. Between people quitting after just a couple of weeks or months and multiple rounds of layoffs, TGB can't seem to keep anyone for long and those who have stayed are just shouldering the burden of last-minute changes and taking on more work. It's easy for higher-ups to blame it on the crypto market, but there is more to their business decisions and financial problems than that. -This company doesn't keep its promises, even the small ones. Monthly care packages were included in our job descriptions and employment contracts, but TGB never delivered on something as simple as that. -The crypto market is still a little too volatile and shaky to build a successful business on. Upper management never quite knows what they're doing or what they want. Simple, fundamental things--target audience, core messaging, roadmaps--were never clearly defined. This makes people's jobs a nightmare. The Giving Block is still too new and floundering to have found its place in either the crypto or philanthropy markets--and it doesn't help that the co-founders & other executives are still figuring things out day by day, which ultimately impacts their employees' livelihoods.

As an employee that opportunity alone motivates you to bring your best self to the table every day.

The fast-paced environment is not for everyone. Only problem-solvers and dynamic executors will thrive.

Pros

Resume Boost: You can gain additional SaaS and crypto experience that can enhance your resume. Remote Work: There is an option to work remotely, though it's worth noting that most employees end up working until 10:30 PM.

Kontras

My time at The Giving Block was by far the worst job experience I've ever had. As a Project Manager, I expected support and collaboration, but instead, I encountered significant issues that made my role nearly impossible: Lack of Managerial Support: My manager was consistently checked out during meetings and provided no support when I flagged issues. In fact, they even suggested I stop meeting with them altogether and direct my concerns to the COO. Disjointed Leadership: The organization suffers from severe leadership issues. Co-founders meddle excessively in day-to-day operations, leading to a disjointed decision-making process and a lack of clear direction. Toxic Culture: Company-wide Slack channels are used to publicly call out and demean employees. This creates a toxic atmosphere where communication is adversarial rather than collaborative. High Turnover and Poor Communication: There is rampant turnover, which speaks to deeper cultural issues. Despite being initially praised by HR, I was suddenly let go for supposed performance issues that were never communicated to me during one-on-ones. Misleading Incentives: They dangle the carrot of Shift 4 stock options if EBITA goals are met, but don't be fooled. Layoffs are frequent, and employees rarely see these stocks vesting. Conclusion: The Giving Block sells itself as a fast-paced environment, but in reality, it's an organizational mess with little regard for employee well-being or professional growth. If you value a supportive workplace and transparency, look elsewhere.
