Web3 is swiftly evolving, with a growing cohort of builders and companies applying the principles of decentralization to a wide range of innovations. Calyptus, a leading platform for web3 job seekers, has released its inaugural Talent Titans Top 100 Web3 Employers list to recognize these employers in our ecosystem.
Consensys is honored to be recognized as the No. 2 employer on the inaugural Calyptus Talent Titans list. We are grateful to our peers and the community who participated in the review for acknowledging our company culture and values, employee development, approach to innovation, as well as compensation and benefits.
Championing the Principles of Decentralization in the Workplace
At Consensys, redesigning the traditional workplace and mirroring the principles of decentralization is a priority, breaking down barriers to entry to engage with web3 builders worldwide. As a fully remote company, we leverage the expertise of over 800 employees from diverse backgrounds, working on projects across 40 locations globally. This diverse talent pool not only brings fresh perspectives but also helps identify new use cases to onboard the next billion users.
Since the launch of Ethereum, Consensys has been committed to being the strongest force for decentralization on the planet. Our researchers, protocol developers, client teams, and cryptographers from around the globe have contributed to nearly every major Ethereum milestone.
Through our collective work, we have learned that people in our ecosystem are not like talent from the wider tech industry. Our builders are driven by the mission of blockchain technology and are aligned with its core tenets of transparency, trust, and autonomy.
These principles directly feed into our culture, influencing our benefits and business structure. Underlying all of this are the Consensys core values: we act with kindness, cultivate community, continually evolve, embrace innovation, and deliver impact. Our People & Talent strategy reflects these tenets, listening to our community and empowering our People team to deliver a total employee experience based on their needs.
Methodology for the Talent Titans Top 100 Web3 Employers
Calyptus deployed a multi-phase process to assess and rank web3 companies based on their company culture and values, employee development, approach to innovation as well as compensation and benefits. The process included an open nomination period, an internal review conducted by the Calyptus leadership team, interviews with the nominated companies, a community review from over 30,000 individuals in the ecosystem, and an expert judge review. Lastly, Calyptus used a custom-built algorithm combining three inputs: the initial ranking, the community ranking, and the judges’ ranking.
The process emphasized the following criteria:
● The diversity and inclusiveness of their workforce.
● Employee satisfaction and benefits.
● Career development opportunities within the organization.
● The company's approach to attracting and retaining talent.
● The company's contribution to and standing within the Web3 community.
Actively Shaping the Future of Work in Web3
The People & Talent team at Consensys recognizes that properly providing a nurturing work environment and holding our spot as a top web3 employer involves constant learning. Web3 has proven to be a catalyst for evolving the nature of how we work. It asks us to critically evaluate our current methods and chart new paths that will move us to more decentralized, community-driven, and inclusive work environments.
Recognizing this, together with global data research firm YouGov, Consensys conducted a first-of-its-kind workforce survey about the web3 industry that captures the skills, motivations, and concerns of web3 professionals in different regions of the world.
We’ve collaborated with 30 web3 organizations to help circulate the survey and better understand what drives web3 talent to work in our ecosystem. Read the full report here.
