Pros

Friendly people, pay is ok, some nice perks

Cons

The codebase is a mess and very demotivating. Nepotism in the upper management. Hence most of the managers are inexperienced. Feedback and performance evaluations are topdown, so management only evaluates itself. Communication is poor. Several mass layoffs. People get fired without notice and clear reason. It seems mostly political.

Pros

Good engineers and nice people in my software team.

Cons

Chessable is a very political workspace. Briefly, it’s not one company it’s part of the larger Play Magnus Group. The interaction with the “group” is very complicated. Briefly there is always political issues between the group companies. Too many decision makers, and none of them is technology based. The leadership has no idea how to manage a tech company. It’s really managed as a book publisher and thus unable to scale up the business even during the pandemics.
