Pros

Choose your own schedule. Working with people who are incredibly diverse and driven. Remote.

Cons

It has been beyond frustrating to keep up with all the changes that this company has gone through. I totally acknowledge that change is part of life, and I pride myself in being adaptable and flexible. However, working in Paper under the current leadership feels like you're constantly put in the front line of an open battle, taking all the deadly hits, and if you happen to raise a concern about this in the process, you will be stabbed in the back by the very people you represent. This isn't about helping students anymore. Putting the students first would mean they take care of their tutors, and we are NOT taken care of. The work culture implemented by HQ is toxic and low key authoritarian. I do believe in the original mission behind this company. But as all good things, it has been ruined by greed.

Pros

Real remote flexibility here. They are embracing the technology we have to ensure our work life balance remains a high priority. You're trusted to manage your own time and get the job done without constant oversight. The bigger story though is the turnaround over the last year and a half. The new leadership has turned the ship around... before it fell off the map. The mission is clear now, and there's real room to help shape how we get there rather than crossing our fingers, closing our eyes, and hoping for the least worst.

Cons

Leadership communication is where things fall a bit short. We get the monthly all-hands and then... radio silence. I get it, priorities compete and there's a lot on their plate. But when the crew is the one actually rowing the boat, it helps to hear from the captain more than once a month. The occasional engagement via Slack, a little more visibility in between the big meetings would go a long way toward keeping everyone rowing in the same direction. We're all in this together - it's helpful to be reminded why a bit more often.
