Pros

Too many to list them all. This has been one of the more fullfilling professional experiences of my life. Like many companies, Curriculum Associates has needed to adjust to the challenges posed by covid and we truly have adopted a mindset of being in this together. Upper management truly listens to direct reports and our CEO is one of the more humble and responsive leaders I have ever worked for. This is a great place to work!

Cons

The hiring process take a while to get through. I understand that it takes a while to find the best candidate, and it is also very important to ensure that we are looking for diverse candidates. Maybe it would be helpful to look to continually improve the logistical processes as much as possible.

Pros

Lots of internal training Strong company core values Opportunities to grow within the company Opportunity to impact the education of many Passionate colleagues Supportive and approachable management

Cons

Some of the "benefits" I started with and greatly appreciated are being taken away. Losing mileage reimbursement was tough to swallow. I drive a lot and am constantly carting manuals/books/etc to sites. Work life balance is stated but not always practiced.
