Pros

Are you an independent-minded, self-motivated recent college grad willing to work for less than your worth? Do you look the other way when overpromoted mediocrities make suspect decisions? Are health benefits not important to you? If you answered yes to any of these questions and are able to pass a subjective, ever changing intelligence test, then Relias Learning is the place for you! I mean, Relias! We changed our name because we’re so fast-paced! Better keep up! We have ping-pong!* Don’t believe that Relias is a SUPER FUN GREAT PLACE to work? Well, look at all the positive reviews the ELT made middle-management write! Bet Red Hat doesn’t make their employees write fake reviews. #relias Is our business model beginning to collapse under a mountain of poor strategic decisions made year after year? Are we laying people off even though we claim to make gobs of money? Did I mention we have foosball? We’re fun!** And yes yes, some of the people in management are unqualified, don’t know what they’re doing, and are possibly committing fraud. But guess what, they’ll be gone in 6 months anyway, so it doesn’t matter! Also, new building! So, come on, Millennial, ignore the negative reviews, forget that gnawing sense that something isn’t right and get ready to have a blast at the GREATEST COMPANY IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD for no more than 50% of your market value (including benefits)!!!!!!!! Also, we’re streamlining your position. Please turn your computer in to your manager. Wait, your manager was streamlined as well. Just drop your computer in a garbage can.

Cons

*ping-pong is not to be played during office hours. Get back to work! **foosball is not to be played during office hours. Get back to work!

Pros

Amazing corporate culture Leadership listened to engineering on tools, technology stack, etc Actual product ownership, including necessary input and control (instead of being told you own a product and then not given the necessary access or tools to maintain it)

Cons

Hiring process involved psychological screening with a lot of implicit bias, almost like an IQ test. On the plus side, I've been told they discontinued its use after that was pointed out.

Pros

Some of the peers met.

Cons

You have to be a "yes" person. It is not about your productivity or tenure. The organization celebrates the money-makers. They romanticize a false sense of community. They celebrate the coffee shop with a zombie like fixation. It doesn't detract from the underlying problems of management being out of touch with employees. Their inability to read the room has been present for a while. They failed to see during Covid that it takes more than food, drink and "community" when the fact of the matter was that it only showed lack of trust in their employees. Team meetings consist of a manager who is incapable of reigning in meetings that devolve into nonsense and wasted time. Obvious bias exists as there are clear favorites on the team, and their ideas are more readily accepted and heard. Comments as to appearance lead to obvious preference and isolation of other team members. Now that DEI is thing of the past and everyone is trying to navigate it smoothly, Relias proceeds to post the whitest President’s Club photo ever. It’s completely tone-deaf. They continue to make decisions that may seem to make sense at the top but have no relevance or need when it comes to employees.
