Vantaggi
Currencycloud are an exciting fintech with lots of opportunity to grow as a company.
Svantaggi
Currenycloud tries to promote an engineering culture where everyone can make a difference. But this is ruined by the CTO who doesn’t believe in this culture, who has been caught lying on several occassions, and is frequently telling team members not to contradict him infront of others. There are some very important leaders with good ideas in the business, but they are being wasted due to the CTO’s ego and old fashioned (corporate), blame-driven micro-management style. Currencycloud has quickly become a dysfunctional organisation where people are more interested in protecting themselves rather than doing the right thing. There needs to be a significant change at the top so that Currencycloud doesn’t become just another finance company with a ineffective IT department drowning in red tape.
