Pros

Like many employees here, I came in large part for the mission: free language education for the world. It feels great to work for something that is truly meaningful to me. I also came here because the opportunities in online education are so exciting: we can develop and iterate on new and more effective ways to teach at a much larger scale than was ever possible before.

On top of that, the team here is top-notch, on par with tech giants like Google and Facebook. Anyone who has used Duolingo can tell that we have a stellar product team.

Lastly, Duolingo has a great culture -- it's a really fun place to work.

Cons

Hmmm, hard to think of anything. There are a lot of social events here -- I can't possibly participate in all of them.

Advice to Management

Luis and Severin have built a fantastic company and are doing a great job growing it, making us profitable while staying true to the company's mission.
