I got banned from talking about web3 at work. TG if you're hiring 💬

Bizarre. Sorry to hear that.

We’re you trying to convince them they have a losing strategy without it or something?

1/ We’re solving for consumer security and identity. 

I was sharing web3 products with similar use cases and was tasked with putting a deck together by the team. Manager made assumptions without context, made a doc with screenshots of me talking about web3 and inaccurate claims

3/ CDO admitted I was misleveled from when I joined months ago, but too much context has been lost because of our massive attrition rate. He gave me a raise to make sure that I felt more valued and to ensure I stayed through the next promotion cycle (Nov). But, who knows 🤷‍♀️

4/ When people start putting shit in writing in a well organized Confluence doc with bs assumptions and zero context, rather than delivering feedback directly…it should be met with skepticism. He’s a very vanilla, play by the books-type manager.

Advocate for yourselves, friends!

*when I joined almost 2 years ago, admitted to me in a 1:1 a few months ago, but said his hands were tied

5/ Also, lol consumer identity and security is being solved in web3. We’re an experimental team, learning through generative research, with free reign and autonomy over what we’re creating. Asking me to stop talking about web3 will lead to missed opportunities, but ok ✌️

2/ I pushed back in the doc with each accusation he made. He’s my 3rd manager in less than 2 years. It’s just bureaucratic bs + politics, and an attempt to stop my promotion, which was promised by his manager, our CDO.
