Management changes directions every few months. Frequent "reorganizations" that resulted in many turnovers and poor maintenance of existing systems over the years. Company is supposed to integrate technology into education, yet, very few of the upper management seem to have any expertise in either areas. Company is supposed to be a newly formed "start-up", yet upper management seems to focus more on relationship management instead of gaining knowledge in the education domain and getting its hands dirty in the actual product. It's on a downward spiral before its eventual doom. It operates with many cons associated with those of a corporation - hierarchical structure, increasing bureaucratic, words like metrics, stability, initiative are becoming more predominant.

Upper management seemed to have no idea what the vision for the company was. There was an inability to pick what we excelled at and stick with that, just a lot of fumbling trying to keep up with too many things. There was no transparency about what was happening with the company, just an ominous tone of "maybe we'll have jobs tomorrow, maybe we won't" for months before the massive layoffs.
