It is very much a kids' show, and that's something to take into account. People have called it the "Clone Wars" of Star Trek, and I think that's accurate. It takes a group of non-human teenagers from a grungy crapsack society and shows them what the Federation is and stands for, without any interaction from any Federation citizens except a hologram of Captain Janeway.

It actually works very well, but I also have to say I have kids, and watch a lot of (the best-regarded) animated kids' shows with them. If you have liked things like Avatar: the Last Airbender, The Dragon Prince, or She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, you would also probably like Prodigy. If you can't stand animated kids' shows at all, then no, you should skip it.
