Pros
✅ Great mix of brilliants minds who are purpose-driven, respectful and supportive. No silos or cliques. I love how we celebrate each other. Best culture I’ve been a part of! ✅ Amazing growth opportunities, with great development and up-skilling offerings. It’s impossible not to grow at Kami, you’ll have managers and leadership backing you! ✅ Very supportive, very human execs who REALLY cares and value it’s employees; their team’s professional growth, happiness + health and well-being. They are not afraid of showing appreciation and rewarding you; small and big wins. ✅ A place that is receptive to feedback, who listens to its employees. Leadership seeks critique and reminds employees they have a voice (which was a total opposite to my previous workplace who preferred if people didn’t voice their opinions) ✅ You’ll be in a rewarding role helping shape the future of education. You’re literally helping millions of teachers and students around the world! That is super special. ✅ Work-life balance is real here! You don’t wake up dreading to go to work. You wake up feeling motivated and inspired to start your day because you know what you do has a purpose, and the people you work with are just absolute rockstars who share the same values as yourself. Overall, I feel very very lucky to be part of this team! I’ve been here a few years and it’s been amazing witnessing our growth and being a part of it. This is a great workplace founded by great people with great drive to help millions around the word. In my years here I’ve sort of thought of Kami like a unicorn, it doesn’t sound real but once you meet the people and start working here you’ll understand why it’s special and rare!
Cons
I wouldn’t even classify this as a “con” — but this is not the place for people who thrive in a hyper-hierarchal corporate environment, or people who need an excessive amount of handholding. You’ll need to be keen to learn and love it (we are in the edtech business after all) — people at Kami value education and training. You will need to be agile and adaptive to change because we’re a growing company operating in an international market; you’ll be joining at a very exciting time for sure. Again, we have approachable leaders who are here to help you grow and hear you out, but if you don’t like working autonomously or need someone looking over your shoulder all the time, then this might not be the best environment for you. Hard and smart workers will thrive here. People who love to be part of the solution will thrive here!
