$12 Billion Firm's Co-Founder Says Gen Z Employees "Makes Me Want To Pull My Hair Out" But...

Paradigm, a San Francisco-based crypto investment firm, made headlines when they hired their first Gen Z employee, 19-year-old Charlie Noyes. Noyes, a dropout from MIT, made a memorable entrance by arriving five hours late to his first meeting, leaving co-founder Matt Huang both frustrated and intrigued.

Despite the rocky start, Noyes quickly proved himself and rose through the ranks to become a general partner at the $12 billion firm. Huang, reflecting on their initial interactions, recalled being shocked when he discovered that Noyes was just a teenager, having mistaken him for a seasoned crypto professional based on their online conversations.

Noyes’ journey into the world of crypto began at a young age, discovering Bitcoin at 12 and gaining recognition as a published researcher and science competition winner by 19. After a brief stint at MIT, he decided to drop out and join Paradigm, immersing himself in the industry.

Integrating young talents like Noyes into the firm was not without its challenges, as initial misunderstandings about work expectations had to be addressed. However, once on the same page, Noyes and other young prodigies at Paradigm, such as CTO Georgios Konstantopoulos and developer @transmissions11, have made significant contributions to the company.

Huang humorously likened managing this team of brilliant but unconventional minds to running a school for superheroes, highlighting the unique dynamic and energy they bring to the table. This trend of embracing Gen Z talent is not unique to Paradigm, as companies worldwide are recognizing the value of their fresh perspectives and bold ideas in transforming workplaces for the better.

As the workforce continues to evolve, the success of young disruptors like Noyes serves as a testament to the potential for unconventional paths to lead to extraordinary results in the rapidly changing world of crypto and technology.
