Good pay

Pros

It's good pay. They're flexible on hours when they want to be.

Cons

Emphasis on "good" pay, not great. If you're on contract they make you work as if you are full time but without any benefits. They overload you with work but can't comprehend why you would feel overwhelmed.

A Disgrace to Education

Pros

Leaving a honest review is the only pro I have from my experience.

Cons

Where do I begin? The company makes unrealistic promises. Spends over half of the calendar year preparing for busy season and yearly remains unsuccessful. Contractors, leads, and managers depending on your department are all overworked and simply told to “deal with it”. Ego-driven environment with a ridiculous amount of inconsistency. People are fired without any regard or consideration and the only concern of higher ups is gaslighting people to make them stick around until even they are not needed anymore. A leech environment where they will drain you completely dry. A total mess in hiring structure, no real plan for repeated items that go wrong every.single.year. Too many teams to count and no one ever has a concrete answer about anything. Contractors are treated like crap and viewed as disposable. Execs dangle the promises of potential full time employment based on performance which is an absolute joke. You can give 100% and STILL be disregarded if you make the wrong person mad. I had such high hopes during my tenure; then I slowly began to notice the ‘car salesman’ talks from my peers and those above me. People’s lives, families, and job security are a joke to some. I hope in the future those that have the ability to truly change the culture actually do.

Prioritizes bottom line over people and mission

Pros

Compensates well, work life balance is good

Cons

Hire and fire culture. They aren’t genuine about serving students and teachers. It’s hard to care about putting in 100% effort when I’m just a cog in the corporate machine.
