Pros

* You get thrown in the deep end * There are opportunities to move into other departments and roles * A lot of good people throughout the company

Kontras

* Poor leadership (mainly from the CEO, but infecting the whole leadership team) * Terrible culture * Zero psychological safety - they have a core value of "Disagree and commit" that could only possibly be and abbreviation of "Disagree and commit to the CEO's decision", they "celebrate failure", but fire anybody that fails according to the CEO's "instincts" / arbitrary measures of performance * Zero care or respect for any of their employees * Irrational micro management from the CEO - clearly does not trust his leadership team

Kontras

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.

Kontras

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.
