Pros

- Open and transparent culture where all ideas are valued. - An environment of constant development which strives for the best, in terms of the product and for the people it recruits. - Creativity thrives! - A German company that welcomes and nurtures expats and actively integrates them into life in Berlin. (Language classes are available) - An employer that genuinely cares for the wellbeing of it's staff. This includes food, drinks, social events, sports/yoga classes, unlimited self development budget, company retreats, inspiration days etc. - Most importantly, a company who's mission I can align with and be proud of, which is to discover talent and revolutionise publishing and the consumption of books.

Cons

- Young company, so doesn't come without teething problems and learning curves. - Ideas fly around quickly, and are acted on quickly, you'll need be prepared and adaptable to change.

Cons

Inkitt is a fast-paced start-up with no set playbook. People who love structure and need to be managed and told what to do may find it challenging.

Pros

Inkitt is one of the few places that actually sits between tech and media in a way that works. A manuscript comes in, real reader behavior tells you whether the story has legs, and the team turns that signal into a career for the author. I think about reader retention and narrative pacing in the same conversation now, which I didn't before.

Cons

The flip side is that the playbook doesn't fully exist yet. Some weeks you're inventing the process while running it. Energizing if you like ambiguity, exhausting if you don't. Worth being honest with yourself about which camp you're in before signing on.
