Pros

The company finally feels like it's growing up. Though fun and exciting, everyone isn't running around putting fires out anymore - there are intentional and thoughtful decisions made backed with sound reasoning. The leadership team has grown and is much more well rounded and experienced. There are more standards, plans and processes put in place to help the team function better as a whole more effectively.

Cons

Despite maturing a bit, there's still a lot of room to grow and challenges to grapple with. It took us a bit of time to start tackling some of the meaty topics and there are a lot of strong opinions on how to steer the ship but it really seems like the shared drive and passion to make the company better has been a unifying factor.

Pros

Photomath is a global EdTech company headquartered in the United States but with a larger presence in Croatia. The two cultures meld well together in the relational side of the Croatian associates and the productivity-focused US team strikes a good balance for a start-up company. The workload seems fairly distributed for most teams though may differ depending on team. There definitely seems to be a lot more time and patience for exploration and creativity at this company compared to the stigma of tech companies.

Cons

As much as there are huge positives to working for a multicultural organization, I don't think there is enough emphasis put on how to communicate effectively accordingly. I think more effort should be placed on how to conduct productive and pleasant cross-cultural meetings.

Pros

- As the Headline says, there's always new things to work on at Photomath. Though most of the company is based in Zagrab, Croatia, there is a group of employees that is based out of the Bay Area, and this part of the company feels very start-upish (which I love) - I really feel like my work is making an impact on the product that we're giving to our end-users - Everyone is an absolute pleasure to work with. I've been here for over a year and have not once had any sort of work-place passive-aggresiveness that one can encounter - Their vacation policy is very generous, and you can tell that management really does want people to use it, since it's apparent in all facets of the company that people here appreciate a good work-life balance

Cons

- As mentioned before, a lot of the company is based in Croatia, so depending on the role you're in, you might have to take several meetings per week with other employees with a 9-hour time difference, which can give you either early morning or late-night meetings
