Pros

They've designed a great product, but Kojo's leadership is destroying the company.

Cons

Kojo is a victim of its own arrogance and rapid rise to success. The company was founded by a team of ivy leaguers with brilliant minds and ideas on a mission to " make it easier to construct the built world around us." Translation= we want to make it to 10 million in revenue so we can sell off the company and cash in as quickly as possibly. They've done a great job of building the product, but somehow they managed to convince themselves up until 2023 that they have no viable competitors who can do what they do. Their astonishing arrogance has led to a series of intense course corrections in their value prop, leadership, and beyond. 2024 was supposed to be their year of hitting startup unicorn status by surpassing 10 million in value, but instead it's begun with mass firings, internal dismay, and employee exodus due to a horrible rot from the top. They are firing their best talent or forcing them out. Exasperating their problems is a self-absorbed leader at the helm who is mostly concerned with securing her next interview in Forbes magazine or CNN. She loves to boasts of all her media accomplishments, and her open communication policies, but the only time you'll hear from her is at the monthly all hands call where she loves to hear herself talk for most of the meeting. She also can't be found around the holidays to wish her employees a merry christmas or happy new year. Completely a mouth piece for the organization vs a actual visionary leader. Kojo truly is a train wreck right now.

Pros

The training structure at Kojo has been amazing. Sadie and the rest of the team have been so helpful with getting starting and being successful right from the jump. Having real connections with co-workers while being remote has been super cool as well.

Cons

no cons on my end!

Pros

Old days Kojo was an absolute time. Change in leadership made it a much worse place to work. Decent product, can be a big solve for contractors.

Cons

Changing the goal post quite often on the sales team. Constantly felt like we were going in different directions with product.
