Pros

Inkitt has a brilliant vision in a very attractive industry. It combines books and stories with tech which is pretty unique. The best about the company is the team. All of them very inspiring young professionals and high energy performers. Inkitt is almost more an academy than a company in the sense that you are constantly encouraged to pick up new skills and leave your comfort zone.

Cons

Be aware that long working hours are expected as well as self development if you aren't willing to work hard and broaden your skill set it's probably not for you.

Pros

- Being able to lead projects independently from A to Z and be trusted for it - Engaging daily with a creative and passionate team - Being part of exciting new projects in a fast-paced, fast-evolving industry - Steep learning curve, you'll be pushed out of your comfort zone and grow fast

Cons

Inkitt is a fast-paced start-up with no set playbook. People who love structure and need to be managed and told what to do may find it challenging.

Pros

Inkitt is one of the few places that actually sits between tech and media in a way that works. A manuscript comes in, real reader behavior tells you whether the story has legs, and the team turns that signal into a career for the author. I think about reader retention and narrative pacing in the same conversation now, which I didn't before.

Cons

The flip side is that the playbook doesn't fully exist yet. Some weeks you're inventing the process while running it. Energizing if you like ambiguity, exhausting if you don't. Worth being honest with yourself about which camp you're in before signing on.
