Pros

Great colleagues. Started salary was quite decent.

Cons

I had an extremely disappointing experience working at this company. Lack of Professional Growth: There were limited opportunities for promotions and career advancement. Top-Heavy Decision Making: Leadership lacked transparency regarding company goals. Direction from the top was unclear, and projects were poorly managed, resulting in a chaotic work environment. Poor Managerial Skills: Frequent rounds of restructuring led to instability and low morale among employees. It was challenging to perform well due to the constant threat of layoffs. Given my experience, I cannot recommend GoStudent to potential employees. If you value your professional growth and workplace stability, walk away.
