Scholastic Software Developer reviews

Absolutely no career growth. Good luck getting a promotion, you'll be told you're too ambitious No learning opportunities - the interesting projects are pushed offshore to cut costs while the full time engineers maintain piles of garbage Hostile work environment Petty, vindictive office politics Extremely high turnover of long-term engineers, the only plan to replace them is fresh college hires No recognition or care for employees who stick their necks out for the company

- Location - not much can be done about WHERE the office is, but more can be done about what it looks like. Paint the walls, put out some plants, give some life to the environment so that you're encouraging creativity among your engineers - Get better about recognizing your problem teams and managers; certain leads have a warped view of how to engage with their team members, leading to situations where they're given way too much work with little to no say about what the real effort it. They put some of their engineers in a position to fail and that doesn't have a clear way of being reported up the chain - PTO and healthcare benefits suck
