Pros

The Seattle office was a great place to work. I worked with some of the greatest people I'd ever gotten the opportunity to work with. The new office was very nice. There was a casual atmosphere where open communication/collaboration on projects was encouraged. The product was interesting, and I felt good working on something that I thought would benefit education by making it easier on teachers to teach and students to learn.

Cons

Sometimes things felt a bit disorganized. The Seattle office felt very isolated from the other major office locations. The regular non-management employee is often out of touch with what's really happening in the company until big changes/updates are made. The company is suffering in the current educational software market which is shrinking due to poor economies.

Pros

The tech support team is very diverse personality wise and ethnically. We're a fun bunch and it's a pleasure to spend time with them. Promethean as a whole is a cool company. Although we're growing, at times it still feels like a mom & pop shop. Because of what Promethean does you get to feel like you're affecting change in the educational world.

Cons

There isn't much room to grow in most departments. There's no definite path for advancement. If you want to "move up," then you basically need to "move out" and go to another department because there's no place else to go. Working here is cool and all, but you should have other interests if you get antsy. Also, there's very little possibility of getting into upper management unless you've had that type of job before or have had untold success at your current position in the company. We also don't hire from within much although the jobs are advertised internally first.
