Pros

The product development team is amazing. The VP's (not senior or executive) are tremendous leaders who care about the products and the business. They also see employees as individuals and treat people with respect.The leadership is inspiring and wants employees to be their very best.

Cons

The company is too focused on lobbying and threats with lawsuits instead of doing business right. The upper leadership is arrogant and unapproachable. Academic decisions by the educators are overturned by MBA's. It is all business and no academics or concern for children. The negativism and phony press releases are damaging employee morale.

Pros

Great collaboration with highly professional colleagues who truly care about teaching and education. Work remotely.

Cons

Insufficient training for the many responsibilities of the position. Insufficient follow-up from the upper administration on said responsibilities. Workload increased to levels that made completion of said workload difficult (with putting in extra hours without added compensation) to basically impossible. Difficult to change roles (at least, in my position). Many additional hours away from the classroom, which greatly disrupted educational continuity.
