Tether Holdings Workforce Expanded as It Scales Up Compliance and Finance Efforts

The company has a target of having some 200 employees by the middle of 2025, with special emphasis on strengthening its compliance and finance teams involved in overseeing the $118 billion worth of assets that back USDT. According to CEO Paolo Ardoino, the company will remain lean and highly selective when it comes to hiring, only adding senior personnel.

Despite having a comparatively very small team, Tether has recorded appreciable financial success, returning a profit of $1.3 billion in the second quarter. Compared in terms of the number of personnel, Tether Holdings workforce is next to nothing besides major crypto exchanges such as Binance and Coinbase, which have thousands of employees.

Tightened Supervisory Measures as Illicit Use Faces Scrutiny

Tether has come under constant barrage over the potential illicit use of USDT. Last month alone, it was said to be used by Russian arms smugglers to circumvent U.S. sanctions. In an effort to tackle the problem, Tether is increasing its tracking and has partnered with Chainalysis to enhance the monitoring of transactions and screening for sanctions.

It has also been active in investment, using the yields from its Treasury holdings to invest some $2 billion in startups in the past two years. These investments include stakes in companies such as Northern Data Group and Bitdeer Technologies Group, with a small team of 15 overseeing this.

Paolo Ardoino has warned against reckless expansion of the workforce and criticized companies that explode in terms of hiring when the market is good, only to lay off many of their workers subsequently. He said Tether remained focused on a stable and lean operational model while it continued to invest strategically in business and compliance.
