This benefit is perfect for those with full schedules and families. The company offers great compensation and benefits. Every unit in the company is organized around a specific higher order purpose, which includes a passion for doing meaningful work to help students, educators, and employers actualize a better world.
Cons
The company thrives on those who can run fast, adapt to change, evolve, and are truly entrepreneurial. Most organizations expect employees to reside in the square and move up a short step ladder. Ascend Learning grants responsibility, latitude, and autonomy. This requires that we attract people with certain epic traits that are rare including self-starter, self-motivated, and accountable.
