Pros

I worked as a software developer at this EdTech company and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The team is passionate, forward-thinking, and genuinely committed to transforming education through technology. If you're someone who enjoys challenging the status quo and pushing boundaries in a traditionally conservative industry, this is the place for you. Strong culture of innovation, supportive leadership, and meaningful impact.

Cons

Fully remote setup — would benefit from more in-person workshops to connect with colleagues face to face.
