Pros

None that were worth enduring the rest for.

Cons

I want to share my negative experience at the company during my 3-month tenure. I was a part of the Chiliz Exchange team. I left my previous job to join them under the promise of an exciting project with growth prospects. However, as soon as I started, it became evident that the project had no future, and the company was not committed to it. Things took a turn for the worse after three months. We were then informed that, due to the company's decision, the entire team was being LAID OFF. This is completely unacceptable, in my opinion. I left my job to join your company, and now you're telling me you're discontinuing the project? Didn't you know this three months ago? Do you think it's right to toy with people's professional careers like this? This pertains to the end result, but the internal communication and decision-making within the organisation were also abysmal. I do not recommend anyone to join this company.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us and are sorry to hear that your experience with us wasn’t great. We regret that the business unit you joined did not align with your expectations. Any and every company has different life cycles - Chiliz is no different in that sense. We move fast and there have been, and will continue to be, moments where difficult decisions have to be made about the future of a business unit or project and how they align to the future success of the business. In your case, the decision was not anticipated at the time of your recruitment. However, we do understand the impact of such decisions and the impact they can have on one's professional trajectory. If there are other issues that you would like to discuss please feel free to contact me directly. People Director
