Pros

Flexible hours. Was a great culture for a couple years. Good opportunity to make money

Cons

Product is priced waaay too high compared to competition. The culture completely changed once Vista Equity Partners started draining the company of all it's great vlaues. Middle line sales leaders are a joke.

Pros

Nice office to uses when you want. Office perks are awesome.

Cons

Upper Sales Managers (VP and above) are disconnected and have unrealistic expectations for the ground level and up employees. They are only concerned about making a name for themselves then jump ship and onto their next big company/promotion. They talk a big talk, but don't have a clue how it is to walk the walk in today's work environment as a sales employee.

Pros

Pluralsight's mission is incredibly inspiring. Most people you work around are wonderful, innovative humans and in many ways truly are what make working at Pluralsight good. The people we work with are honestly the highlight, they have made working through some hard times at Pluralsight more bearable. Encouragement to continually learn and develop personally and professional are big at Pluralsight as well, something I personally appreciate. We also have good benefits that have been invaluable to myself and my family in my time here. Unlimited PTO and the encouragement to use it are also great things to see across the business.

Cons

Executive leadership turnover has become a regular occurrence in recent years. As a result it feels like strategy and direction are changing regularly causing employees to experience a form of professional whiplash. The end of 2022 and 2023 brought 3 layoffs or "restructures" that have left teams understaffed and often over worked which has caused lower morale and motivation. This has also affected team's trust in the Executive Leadership's decisions and direction. That's not to say we don't understand the need for change and innovation, it brings a lot of benefits and helps keep our business ahead and on the cutting edge. But having some consistency within leadership and their strategy would be valuable to team members at Pluralsight right now.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review. It’s crucial our mission resonates with all of our team members and I'm happy to hear you’re inspired by it. I agree with you that our people are what make Pluralsight such a great place to work and I love reading your positive remarks about the inspiring and innovative people you work with. I acknowledge your concerns regarding executive leadership turnover and the resulting changes in strategy. It's important to note that we've undergone a significant shift in our executive leadership team to align with a new strategy and approach aimed at improving our performance and ensuring competitiveness in the rapidly evolving landscape. We’ll be sharing company-wide OKRs in our January Town Hall to align all of our team members to our company strategy. Improving morale is a specific OKR for my team and we are looking forward to implementing plans for this goal in 2024. Will Clive Chief People Officer
