Not boring at all

Being honest, I didn’t have much expectations before subscribing. But wow I was wrong. Reading it for a bit more than two weeks and can’t wait for every new issue. It’s strange that it isn’t paid because most of such quality content is under the paywall these days. About the content - it’s everything you can expect from strategy deep dive newsletter - it answers a lot of Why’s about companies or concepts that would take loads of time to come up to yourself. The only issue I have is that one needs to continue reading each newsletter in the website instead of delivering it in full, since then you understand that there’s much reading left and sometimes decide to continue later.

Better than Harvard Business Cases

Packy writes very well crafted and deep and not cliché at all analysis of tech companies. It helps you understand and build Super valuable content
