      Pros

      Got to work on some innovative and interesting projects, great team of developers and artist, so much potential...

      Cons

      The CEO! Never around and when he occasionally does make an appearance, the mood in the office always drops. Toxic, aggressive and bullish, he publicly undermines his management team by shouting at them in full view and earshot of everyone, threatens junior staff with "black marks" on HR records if their work displeases him, blames others for his own errors, constantly erodes confidence of senior staff through verbal abuse and psychological manipulation and openly admits to lie to company board and investors.

      Response: Thank you for taking the time to write a review and apologies for our delayed reply. We are pleased about the positive experiences you had here at Kuato, however I am disappointed that I have not lived up to the high expectations I set for myself and that my team deserve, and I will carefully consider your comments in order to make changes to the way the company conducts itself. I take this kind of feedback very seriously and I want to foster a positive, open and encouraging environment at Kuato, so your feedback is welcome. However, I would also like to stress that in no way have we ever lied to our company board or investors, and to suggest as such is inaccurate and misleading to others reading your review.

      Pros

      - above average compensation, well funded company - teams made up of lovely people who are a joy to be around & very good at what they do - challenging work that lets you push your limits - very diverse with lots of cultures & outlooks represented - you get to shape kids' learning capabilities

      Cons

      - employees getting yelled at and physically intimidated by senior management is a daily occurrence - inexperienced senior management, first time CEO with almost no experienced advisors - company is strictly hierarchical, but with a byzantine chain of command which is strictly enforced but also bypassed at a a whim when convenient - an impossible amount of micromanagement and complete lack of trust in employees' expertise - political maneuvering & image crafting for investors - despite multiple products out & years of development, none of them generate significant revenue - outdated marketing practices (bombastic launches, celebrity endorsements) & willing ignorance & lack of expertise in performance marketing vital to succeeding in current market - management is blatantly dishonest when convenient, systematically making promises that they know won't be kept
