3yHi there — Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts. At Bitpanda, we believe strongly in honesty and transparency, and we want to ensure that this is an equitable workplace for all. That’s why we think that it’s essential that all our folks are empowered to speak freely using Radical Candor to share informed opinions in an open, respectful way.
We also know that being at Bitpanda means that this isn’t your typical corporate 9-to-5 and that our Pandas go above and beyond to keep raising the bar. This is why the recent news especially hurt, as it means that we’ve had to let go of some of the best out there. But, because we strongly believe in having a fully open, honest and transparent environment and are committed to doing things the right way, not the easy way, we wanted to ensure that this tough news was delivered as transparently as possible. However, regrettably, due to legal restrictions, we couldn’t communicate it in the most personal way that we would have liked to.
As we watched the world events and market conditions intently, hopeful for a turnaround, unfortunately, we had to be realistic and reassess our strategy. Therefore, we made this difficult decision to ensure that we are fully weather-proofed to navigate the current storm in the market and get out of it financially healthy to continue our mission.
We understand that times like these can make the future look uncertain. However, we want to assure you that these one-time-only measures will not affect the growth opportunities we have always given our Pandas. We are fully committed to ensuring that being here remains the best investment in yourself and that Bitpanda is an equitable workplace for all. After all, we know that the growth of our talented folks on the Bitpanda bus will mean we’ll be ahead of the curve to provide new products and services and help make investing accessible to everyone.
