Pros

Unlimited PTO was the only thing keeping me around. The flexible schedule made up for how horrible everything else was.

Cons

No pay raises once your reach cap No promotion ladder. Only promotions if they have them available. Which was never. Constant layoffs is messing up with products quality Bad management vision and direction, completely clueless on to what to do to help the company for the last 3 years

Thank you for sharing your feedback. I understand your comments about pay raises and promotions. Typically, we conduct annual pay reviews and adjust salaries based on merit and market conditions. We did not hold a merit and market cycle last year due to company performance but we recently ran one for 2024. You are correct that once a team member reaches the top of their pay range, they are not eligible for a pay increase. There are a few reasons as to why but the main call out is because we want everyone in the same role, geo, and level to be paid equitably and fairly within a defined range. However, if a team member does reach the top of their pay range, there are some ways to continue to increase their compensation – mainly through role changes or job level increases. We do have career ladders in place for most roles at Pluralsight, outlining the path to advancement. You are correct that promotions do require a business need and alignment with organizational goals. We also recognize the impact of frequent layoffs and changes on product quality and management direction. To address these issues, we’ve recently introduced new leadership roles, including a Chief Content Officer and a Chief Delivery Officer – new and focused positions at the company. We’ve also appointed a new Chief Product & Technology Officer. These leaders come with a breadth of knowledge and are committed to aligning our strategy and driving us toward renewed success.

Pay could be worse PTO is still mostly really good Health insurance could be worse?

Cons

Health insurance isn't fully covered anymore, Cigna isn't great Bonuses haven't been fully funded in years Culture is going down hill Scrum imposed upon all teams across the board Vista sucks the soul out of every company they touch I've lowered my review from 5 stars to 2 over the years I've been here

Pros

Good Pay and access to sell services to top organizations

Cons

5 rounds of layoffs in the past year continually downsizing the companies with no warning or clear reasoning as to why. As people and leaders were fired throughout the year, backfills were not made.
