Pros

This used to be a great place to work before the company was acquired.

Cons

The pay is significantly lower compared to other technical roles, and micromanagement has become the norm. There are strict case quotas each week, and even if you meet the required numbers, it’s never enough—they always expect more. Simply doing your job well isn’t enough for advancement; the only way to move up is to go above and beyond to the point of burnout just to get noticed. On top of that, perks and benefits have been stripped away. The benefits are hardly worth it—you pay a premium, yet still end up paying hundreds out of pocket because coverage is so limited. Instead of investing in their U.S. workforce, the company prioritizes outsourcing and has even offered incentives for American employees to leave.

Pros

Very nice co-workers Benefits are at least average Work life balance is ok, flexible time off and decent holidays Don’t have to work that hard, great place to retire Focused on AI though the foundations for it aren’t there - as if we’re trying to check the box for a board

Cons

Pretty much a start up with terrible systems and processes Little to no investment in any supporting functions rooted in the TB days of prioritizing margin Cross-functional work is disorganized with horrible change management Complacency across the board. Seems like the old people are just waiting for their equity to vest, doing the absolute bare minimum Clearly an edtech company which feels a lot like what the government must be like Atrocious decision making Senior leaders care more about politics and their own egos than making the company better. Like everyone has an agenda I cannot imagine worse systems setup or data
