Pros

I've been working at IXL for almost 5 years, and I love it here! The company one of the leading EdTech companys in the world, we get to create and sell Products that directly impact students and teachers everywhere. Also, believe it or not the upper management truly truly cares about its employees. I have seen this from the start. The environment is work hard play hard. I've given the company a lot of me, but they have given me a lot in return (great pay, amazing benefits, growth opportunity...). I've also made some of the greatest friends at IXL--I'm so grateful they are picky about hiring! All in all, I'm very lucky to have had the opportunity to grow my career at a company like IXL.

Cons

The only thing I can think of are some growing pains, but we're hiring at such a fast rate and I don't foresee it being an issue!

Pros

The company is going through a period of rapid expansion and with that come new opportunities and challenges - you can definitely make an impact at this point. That's exciting! The company is actively investing in it's employees through newly remodeled floor plans and programs designed to increase efficiency across the board. It's refreshing to see a company actively pushing for the benefit of it's employees. The company hosts game nights, trivia outings, happy hours, sports teams and other socials that allow employees to find their niche and connect with people from other departments. Strong relationships can happen quickly. There is pretty universal excitement amongst employees about the products that we're creating. The core vision is still heavily focused on education and making better platforms for learning. Money is important, but it's really more of an offshoot of building solid products that meet a need. Compensation is very competitive for the area.

Cons

The company has gone through a lot of growth in the last couple of years. IXL still needs some time to build out stronger infrastructure for continued growth.

Pros

The co-workers here are incredibly gifted and awesome people. They care about their job, the product, and the other employees. Everyone is really nice and will always take the time to answer questions or give advice if asked. There is a company softball team and basketball team. The development team is moving to a new floor next week that looks amazing! The health benefits are great and the salary is competitive. The company is growing and there are lots of opportunities to work on new and interesting projects.

Cons

There isn't a lot of business experience among upper management. The company is used to being small, and now that it is growing there are some noticeable growing pains. This has been improving of late, but it is still an issue.
