Pros

Good vision, great software/product, some amazing dedicated people for the cause of better education at schools

Cons

Going through 10% reduction in force (layoffs). A few corporate politicians control many things and outcomes, unfortunately. Good valuable employees/contributors are often not compensated well due to politics where the money flows to other teams or other people (less deserving). Pay-inequity within the company from dept to dept for similar positions/roles, unfair authoritative power usage in budget allocations.

Pros

Really kind people. They bust their behinds to get their job done.

Cons

Many employees are former teacher so if school was traumatic here's your trigger warning. The pop quizzes during meetings and knowledge checks afterwards are nauseating. Micromanaging to the tee. Cameras must be on during meetings and if not you get called out. God forbid you have a child that needs to be breastfeeding or some other reason. They'll want the cameras on or demand to know why not. There are sooo many products and so many teams for each product and just everything is too much & too complicated. Pay is laughable for the amount of work that is expected. Training takes an entire month!!! And by the end of it you'll be so confused you still won't have a clue what you're doing. Training is messy. Things are moved around and not communicated. They put you in break out rooms like elementary school children during covid. I could go on and on.
