A Great Place to Grow

Pros

CA has some of the smartest and kindest people I've ever worked with. The culture and family like atmosphere has maintained even though the company has grown. If you are looking for a place to grow professionally this is a great place. Professional development and opportunities are available for everyone at the company. LinkedIn Learning is free for all employees, so I've used it to gain additional skills and to continue learning about additional areas. It's great to work for a company that cares.

Cons

Work can get a bit busy, but the flexibility to work when its best for you helps to balance that.

Pros

The company has good values and is dedicated to serving educators. My managers have always been respectful and understanding. My colleagues are always helpful and willing to support me when I have questions.

Cons

Back to school season is an extremely busy time of year. It is hard to balance home and work for a few months every year. Travel can be extensive and exhausting during this time also.
