## Plato Reviews
  ### 1. Helping  Great Engineers get Guidance and help from current and Ex Leaders at AMAZING Companies

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Scott W. | Co-Founder and Chief Operations Officer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 22, 2022

**What do you like best about Plato?**

They are tacking a hard issue of dealing with people. There are many great engineers who write great code but when they are then promoted for their efforts into a leadership role they struggle. Everyone is afraid of asking stupid questions and Plato is creating a place that allows for great engineers and tech leaders to speak to others who have been in their shoes before - not to mention allow for networking capabilities beyond just LinkedIn!

**What do you dislike about Plato?**

It's been a while but a few years ago, they were solely tied to Slack interactions.

**What problems is Plato solving and how is that benefiting you?**

They are solving the issue of providing high potential employees with experience they want and need to become great leaders

  ### 2. Great way to get mentored from professionals

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 06, 2022

**What do you like best about Plato?**

I got in touch with the founder of Plato when they were just starting out. I was trying to learn how I could become a better manager and was paired up with someone from Airbnb. I remember having a good experience.

**What do you dislike about Plato?**

I honestly didn't use the app enough to run into any major issues with it, but my initial experiences were positive. At the time, I remember it being free, which I appreciated as a startup. But now it seems they charge folks in order to get access to the mentors.

**What problems is Plato solving and how is that benefiting you?**

At the time it was helping me learn how to become a better manager from experienced professionals at established companies.
