Pros

The people are nice to your face

Cons

-Sometimes paychecks are processed late (probably due to lack of funding..) -The curriculum is a joke. It doesn't actually help kids learn anything. -They act on a whim, they don't think anything out. This is true for spending, curriculum, planning games, hiring, etc. -They don't value individuals. -They don't support career growth (it's.. impossible here) -They don't communicate well at all. -CEO just likes to name drop celebrities to make employees feel like everything is secure -There is absolutely no structure or process.. for anything. Constantly in a scramble.

Pros

Square Panda is fast-paced and you never get stuck doing the same thing twice. I've learned more at this job working with this team than any other job I've held. The literacy-based vision for the company is genuine and the folks working for Square Panda are passionate about actually making a difference in the world. The company is at a stage where if things go well for it, you could stand to gain a lot, equity wise. The company hires very smart people who actually take time to explain things to you if you want to learn - something I highly admire.

Cons

In true startup fashion, there are growing pains and sometimes issues working together as a team globally. We oftentimes take on more than we can chew for projects because we don't have the staff to support it - but we somehow manage to always get it done.
