Pros

- The engineering team is talented, collaborative, and genuinely great to work with. - Interesting tech stack (Spring Boot with Kotlin, React, Kubernetes, MongoDB) with potential for learning. - The mission of creating meaningful educational content is commendable.

Cons

- The company’s organisational planning and foresight are non-existent. - I was hired alongside another engineer fully aware there were financial issues, but given reassurances on this, only to be made redundant after a week. This demonstrates a lack of transparency and respect for employees. - Decision-making at the leadership level feels rushed and reactionary, with no real strategy in place for navigating uncertain times. - The instability and lack of communication from the company make it a risky choice for anyone considering a role here.
