Pros

great benefits great non-upper management people can work from home flex time

Cons

CEOs getting multi-million dollar bonuses while employees get tiny raises lack of respect for workers ridiculous deadlines long hours without appreciation expectation to always work long hours fear of being let go if you don't work long hours lots of reorgs management is clueless very little training systems always changing due to reorgs not concerned with quality only bottom line outsourcing to companies because of price not quality lack of communication lack of job description meetings meetings meetings lots of vacation time but management dictates when it can be taken inequalities galore

Working on EdTech and helping improve educational outcome. Caring coworkers, altruistic & mission driven, etc.

Pros

Decent pay. Not much else.

Cons

No lunch break, no breaks in general, can’t go to the bathroom for hours on end, the managers’ daughter gets special treatment because her mother is in charge. Constant criticism and unfair treatment.
