Pros

In the days of the pandemic, Educative adapted well, if not thrived given its worldwide presence and challenging time zones. While the pay scale is not market rate, it's appropriate for an education technology startup, and it comes with a lot of possibilities for personal growth and professional development, if one applies themselves. (This was strongly encouraged at the company.) Working for Educative is most exciting for anyone interested in early-stage startup energies, especially for a company on the rise. It has all the opportunity to make a big impression in its space.

Cons

There are generally two types of personalities in the leadership team: those who support and nurture their team to feel a sense of empowerment and ownership, and those who seem to be eager to fire (or even worse, make it intolerable remain at the company to force a resignation and avoid paying severance). People who reflect the latter will grind through talented people and exhaust the HR and recruiting departments, but sadly there's no accountability for this kind of mismanagement at Educative. This has led to a lot of truly brilliant people departing a toxic work environment.
