Pros

A very passionate and loving environment. I've had the chance to work at two department during my years here. Luckily, both of my supervisors are very talented and super supportive to the team members. It is like a big family and everyone goes to work every day with the same goal. The company owners have big hearts and they care a lot about their employees. They are very passionate about education and have a deep vision of literacy. They care about kids from different background when designing the material. It makes me feel my work is truly special and meaningful. I am grateful for my experiences in the past years working here. It is nice to know you have a whole team standing behind you, and you will have the support you needed. If you are talented, have strong vision of what you want to do, this company is for you. And what you produce here might make impact on some kid's life.

Cons

The work can be a bit intensive during busy times of the year.

Pros

I became incensed when I came across the reviews on Glassdoor and wanted to contribute my own review. I suppose things have changed here at Benchmark because I have a completely different view of this organization. I work fully remote from home. The culture is collaborative. People are NICE and very professional!! The 401k benefits match at 25% of my contributions (not 3 or 4% like most companies) AND they have a profit sharing bonus. It's a very inclusive and diverse company. Thank you, Benchmark. I'm going to reach out to other employees and see if we can 'up' these numbers with positive reviews!

Cons

I wish I could visit the main headquarters and meet my peers in-person someday.

Pros

May be manageable if you are 100% remote.

Cons

If you have to be in the New Rochelle office, it is truly a strange place with bizarre, abusive management. The negative reviews are accurate. You will hear yelling, shouting, cursing, and insults thrown around casually. It’s usually directed at individuals. This comes from the very top CEO - the bad vibes trickle down through middle management and onto workers. Turnover is extremely high, lots of layoffs and outsourcing. Occasional free lunch doesn’t make up for the horrible culture. Systems are convoluted and there’s no real training process or HR, so a lot of times one hand doesn’t know what the other is doing.
