Pros

- Fantastic products to help educational communities improve outcomes around some of the most urgent challenges facing students today: emotional wellness, meaningful connection to school staff and peers, mental health and substance misuse/abuse - Products are proven, backed by research and efficacy data - Employees are highly motivated, ethical, and genuinely care about helping our customers help their communities. - Team members overall are collaborative and find satisfaction in problem solving and succeeding together.

Cons

- Acquisition by Ascend pre-covid followed by transition to remote work in 2020 created a lot of talent turnover, general disorganization and leadership changes. - Kognito is carrying operational debt as a result, it can be frustrating when day to day tasks are more complicated than necessary. - Current leadership is genuinely committed to improving processes and up skilling the current teams. However they seem to struggle with time to deliver because of competing priorities.

Pros

Kognito is a company that is working to do something positive for the world, and its hard to put a price on not feeling like a manipulative burden that is part of the abuse of millions like many many other possible businesses you could work for. There were some issues with work overload for a brief period of time due to the unexpected leave of a couple important team members but if you give the current management input, there is an actual active attempt to solve most issues over time and there was an understanding of the priorities that had to be placed. The current manager of my team was the first manager I ever had in a professional career that took responsibility for their team and did their best to find a balance of what fell on the team while not shoving unreasonable expectations onto me. I owe a lot of my professional development to them and I know that I am prepared for my next job. I left on good terms and would have stayed if it weren't for personal circumstances. I don't know how things are now, but when I left there was extensive restructuring happening because they had just been acquired. Kognito was doing its best to keep a solid start-up atmosphere and I still felt like I was able to make important decisions.

Cons

I didn't feel properly compensated for my work load at times, but I honestly blame myself for not being able to negotiate properly and being hard on myself too often while not valuing myself enough. They literally pulled me in a meeting and told me I wasn't valuing myself enough.
