Pros

- The CEO is impressive and his vision is inspirational. He sets high expectations for performance but ensures that hard work is rewarded. He follows through with his promises and raises are given if you have delivered and achieved your goals. He is approachable, always keeping an open door for anyone to share their ideas. No question is ever silly and he makes you feel valued and respected. He also shows genuine concern for employees’ well-being and fosters a supportive work environment. - The entire team is super collaborative and I love how passionate and dedicated everyone is to become the Disney of the 21st Century. - I appreciate that I am challenged beyond the limits of my role and put on projects that push me to grow and acquire new skills.

Cons

- Working hours are long for those based in Europe because you are having calls etc with people in San Francisco late in the evening.

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.
