Pros

- Product that the world needs - Smart people - Diverse workforce (for Utah) - Interesting and engaged executives - Great perks and competitive pay

Cons

We are a growing company that is moving quickly with aggressive goals. The culture is adapting to these evolving company goals. It is a different place than it was 3-4 years ago, I think that is a good thing, but it has caused conflict with some legacy employees that aren't comfortable with the new direction the company is heading.

Pros

Smart, talented and genuinely good people, mainly at the individual contributor level Okay benefits, and a remote-first culture, for now

Cons

Layoffs happen so often that no one feels secure. Talented, well-liked colleagues leave regularly, some by choice, many not Since the company was acquired and subsequently written off, effectively valuing it at zero, layoffs have been driven almost entirely by financial decisions, rather than performance The workforce strategy has remained the same for the last couple of years: terminate those with high salaries, replace them with cheaper, less experienced talent, and repeat. There's also a new and noticeable gender bias, though it's rarely addressed Leadership no longer prioritizes engagement or employee well-being. People are afraid to speak up, and reporting issues to employee relations can backfire As for the five-star reviews? Many are written because employees are encouraged or asked to post them. They don't reflect what’s going on

Thank you for sharing your perspective. I’m sorry to hear that you’ve had such a negative experience during your time at Pluralsight. Over the past couple years we’ve been going through a transformation to right-size our business and meet the needs of where we are now. This transformation has come with a lot of change and I acknowledge that that can be frustrating and hard. I want to stress that raising concerns should never feel unsafe. If any team member feels that their voice is not being heard or that retaliation could occur, we want to know immediately. Those behaviors are not something we tolerate. If you do not feel comfortable bringing issues to your People Business Partner, we also have an anonymous Ethics Helpline that you can access through Life@PS. To your point regarding five-star reviews, requesting team member reviews is a common practice and we often encourage team members to do so. However, leaving a review is always voluntary and we never seek out positive or inauthentic reviews. If we request team member reviews, we are clear that we are seeking honest reviews about their experiences. Employee experience and well-being are a top priority for my team and one of our company-wide goals. We know our people are important and we’re continuing to build a culture where our team members feel valued and supported. Your review states that you’re a current team member; if you feel like you’re not getting the support you need or have concerns you need to raise, please utilize that hotline. You can also feel free to reach out to me directly, my door is always open. Beckey Woodard Cole Chief People Officer
