Toxic sales team environment

Pros

Real passion for improving math education. Solid digital tools.

Cons

Leadership lacks all humility. Superiority attitude is pervasive. Disrespect and distrust abound. Little desire to learn from others or to collaborate. Field staff is a revolving door and will be for a long time to come.

Not what you think

Pros

It's remote and they give you the materials

Cons

Not as flexible as they advertise. You can "pick your hours" but they come in blocked shifts so you have to see ir through 6-10 weeks at a time at 100% attendance. Otherwise, they can write you up. Their shifts are usually I the afternoon like at 3-7 CT...which is fine for people that it works for. I was expecting to tutor for long chunks of time during the day and afternoon for like two days a week. But the way their schedules work is that if you pick a Tuesday to tutor, those sessions are usually lumped with a Thursday or another day of the week. Which, again, it's fine if that works for you but the way they advertise it, it seems like you'd be able to just tutor on whatever days you want...also to pick up a shift you have to watch the group channel like a hawk. They basically post a Google spreadsheet and then ppl sign up for shifts. It's chaos.

A company with a mission

Pros

The best part of working for Carnegie Learning is that the company is laser-focused on their mission, which is to provide the highest quality math education possible. Because the company is mission-focused, that means you get to work with some of the brightest and most motivated experts in the field.

Cons

The downside of working at Carnegie Learning is that it is a small business, and its business is largely contingent on winning state adoptions. If you're not familiar, a state must approve a math curriculum before it can be sold in that state. That doesn't mean if you don't win an adoption, then you are not permitted to do business in that state. Another downside is that Carnegie Learning has yet to break through to become a major player in the math curriculum market. Since their inception, they have always owned less than 10% of the market. That makes it difficult because the budget is very limited.
