Finally....a place I'm happy and proud to work

Educational sales consultant

Business Outlook

Pros

I finally feel like I've found my place! Employees are seen and heard and respected here. I value the amount of communication that happens at CA on all levels. Teamwork is valued and my team is full of hard-working and caring people. I see evidence every day that the company works to ensure support for their employees and their customers. The company is run with trust and integrity. Management trusts my experience and lets me take the lead in my territory. I've got all the help and support I need, without micromanagement. Benefits and work environment are great!

Cons

A few small things could make life easier like a more upgrades Salesforce instance and company charge cards for travel.

CA Make My Life Better

Senior editor

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Thanks to working at CA, I was able to buy a house shortly after getting married. Previously, it had been a difficult thing to figure out where to buy because my husband and I commuted in opposite directions. Since CA treats employees like responsible adults and lets us work remotely, we found a house within our budget, closer to my husband’s office, and close enough to our families to see them every weekend. We couldn’t have done that without CA. Without a commute, I have more time to prepare healthy meals and exercise. We are also in the process of becoming foster parents, which CA has shown a lot of support for. My immediate team is very excited for us and will work with any scheduling conflicts. CA at large has updated the parental leave policies to specify fostering. I also appreciate the DEIB work the company is doing. Practice makes progress. Hopefully we will slowly but surely make the products and be the company we aspire to be.

Cons

I know this is new, but a clearer policy for fostering would be helpful. With all of the unknowns in the foster care system, additional clarity from CA would be comforting. Also, I have been an editor for a long time. When I consider trying something new, I'm afraid of losing the security and benefits at CA to try. This is not a position I've ever found myself in before. There was some over-promising around DEIB. I think the company has been transparent about shifts and am still hopeful, though this is not how everyone feels.

We are thrilled to hear how CA's flexible work environment has impacted your life for the best! Our compensation team works hard to ensure that compensation is competitive- candidates should feel free to speak openly about salary needs when speaking with a recruiter.

Great Place to Work!

Professional development specialist

Business Outlook

Pros

CA is an educator's close ally. Everything that drives the company is about making schools a better place for teachers and students. They really care about their employees and it is evident in everything they do, from big events to small reach-outs.

Cons

It's a shift to work for a company that has resources nationwide. Sometimes you feel "alone in the workplace" if you are not in the home office, which is located near Boston. But, managers and team members work hard to ensure that all employees feel supported and included.

We are happy that you feel supported by your team, even in this remote working world! CA works hard to maintain this culture of belonging. Please feel comfortable bringing up any unmet needs with your manager.
