Pros

The best thing about CodeCombat is that the leadership values and trusts its employees. This is demonstrated by flexible vacation and work from home policies, as well as how the company has prioritized building company values. This is impressive at such an early stage at a startup. Additionally, the people at CodeCombat truly care about its mission to advance Computer Science education through game-based learning.

Cons

Leadership issues: not all of the managers at CodeCombat are effective leaders, which lowers morale. Not all communication or decision-making is transparent. The company has also prioritized growth and speed over quality in the past, which has resulted in negative feedback from customers.
