Pros

I'm looking to get out.

Cons

Simply too much to put into a short paragraph. Here is what you should know: their corporate culture is not what they tout. It is a top heavy organization that thrives on leading by fear. They believe their current culture issues are just "perception" and that this can be fixed by instating a "no alcohol at company events" policy. No one wants to speak up due to fear of retaliation, which is a real fear.

Pros

Unlimited PTO, decent benefits, great people

Cons

Enjoying a bright career, I loved consulting with this company and eagerly awaited the perfect opportunity to join the team full time. While the work was hard and we often worked nights and weekends, I loved my teammates and stakeholders. I enjoyed great personal relationships with people in all departments. I came to trust a lot of folks and a lot of them trusted me, too. I made the huge mistake of outshining my manager one day. And it was in front of her boss. Things took a quick turn, and suddenly she was working very hard to ruin my career. I was 'laid off' and became deathly ill for the following two years. After seeing specialist after specialist, my team of providers came to the conclusion that my new autoimmune disease destroying my body had in fact been caused but stress. I now have a life- long illness to remind me of what happened at Ascend Learning.
