Vantaggi

Did have a fantastic, friendly, hard working team. Shame that every single one of them got let go when the company funds neared zero - this was pre- COVID. No structure so you can pretty much do what you want The idea is good, the curriculum is great, but there is ZERO business structure. The company literally changed business direction on a month by month basis.

Svantaggi

Company seem too good to be true? that’s because it is. If it was as successful as it claims on social media, they wouldn’t have look 20+ of their workforce go (pre-covid) leaving them as a team of 3. This is the MOST unprofessional company you can work for, 5 employees were once let go and told they were being let go in a company meeting in front of everyone. Named and told to leave in front of the entire company. Absolutely zero compassion for employees livelihood, employees are disposable, as soon as they complete the work needed at that time - gone. 20+ employees were hired and then fired within a space of a year, through no fault of their own. None of the staff that wrote the curriculum remains, meaning no one with a science background works for this company. I won’t deny the company is run by lovely people, but lovely delusional people who cannot offer you any stability or progression.

Vantaggi

I disagree with the previous reviewer. Developing Experts was a great place for me to work for over two years. They provide a fun yet challenging environment to work in where people are motivated and friendly, including the owner who has her employees best interests at heart. It is a startup business so one has to expect things to change and for different people to be required at different stages of its development. Working here offered me amazing insight into the business world, having come from a teaching background this was invaluable. I learnt about exhibiting, marketing, finance and software development and was offered opportunities I never thought existed. This job did wonders for my mental health, it never felt like “working” but being part of something special. The product Developing Experts has is superb and is testament to the team that have worked there, but also the owner - who has often worked long weeks and hours to provide for the company what’s needed. To say that staff have been dispensable is not true, no-one was more upset than the owner when changes / cuts had to be made. The business is now back on its feet and moving in a different direction and not only providing teachers with excellent resources but also promoting careers in STEM.

Svantaggi

I guess the uncertainty when job cuts were made was difficult because we had a great team but I understood why. Again, like any start-up, mistakes are made and bad advice taken but that is part of the learning journey!!!
