OpenSesame reviews

In my opinion, there were too many technologies. And not enough focus on the core product.

It was shocking to realize that a company that sells e-learning employs just a couple of instructional designers. Almost no one there actually understands adult learning theory and instructional design principles. - In June 2023, we heard from the CEO that the company was doing well. Five months later, on November 8, they laid off 15% of their workforce, including me, at a surprise meeting in the middle of the day. - There are some weird practices, such as the requirement to send a daily email to the CEO and other leaders during the first 30 days of employment. After that period, we were still required to send weekly emails. - There was a lot of "just because" busy work. - Waste of time and resources, like the all-hands-on-deck meeting where a slide deck was brainstormed, slide by slide, via Zoom, syncronously, by all the employees. - Elementary school environment.
