Nepotism, Office Bullies and Low Employee Morale - Anonymous employee Edmentum Employee Review

I simply had to respond myself as the new Chief Talent Officer here. Edmentum is always open to feedback. We take feedback seriously, and see all of it as a positive opportunity for improvement. You are right. We do allow family members to work here - in rare cases. As long as the family member is as or more qualified as any other candidate and there is absolutely no direct reporting relationship between those family members - which there is not in any single situation in the company. We’re sorry to see that you believe that the “worst people” continue to be employed here. I believe our company, product, and team performance speak more loudly for themselves - because we have some pretty amazing work happening here. That can’t happen without great people. Is there diversity and variety in levels of that? Of course there is - like at any company. HR Talent Team people analytics proudly show we have the lowest employee turnover currently than in the past five years, and less than half the rate pf turnover when compared to any other tech company in the industry. We have intentionally hired and kept the most well-qualified experts in all areas. Here’s the scoop, which you were unfortunately not aware of, regarding employee benefits. In the last year alone we have intentionally ADDED several employee benefits, and pulled nothing. We added an additional day of volunteer time off (adding up to now two full days of VTO total), added paid paternity leave, added additional paid holidays (to make sure our employees can comfortably enjoy our holiday week shut-down), and we are now adding HSA as a new option for health insurance savings. And leaders at every single level in the company are dedicated to work flexibility and even remote work. Our CEO, Jamie, is fully dedicated to the positive aspects of every Edmentor’s work experience. And – as everyone here knows - has had a long-standing history with Edmentum. She worked here for over ten years and successfully ran every function in the company – including the HR Talent function – before becoming CEO. She is far from a “new” leader here. Thank you again for the feedback and thank you also for the opportunity to improve. Edmentum wishes you the very best at the next place you land. Dr. Mia Mulrennan Chief Talent Officer
