Pros

Good people working tails off to improve the company and student experience.

Cons

Major budget cuts have decimated QA, reporting and IT ops teams while leaving the development team fat (development run by disconnected longtime CIO crony). CIO states system operations, data reporting and quality are critical while these areas were hit hardest in recent layoffs. Expect to support 24x7 systems with staff barely able to keep up with business hours work. Poor environment for talented, committed, underpaid, and overworked IT pros. Join K12 development team if you want 6 hour workdays, minimal accountability and your nights and weekends off.
