Thanks for sharing your experience. It is nice to hear that you enjoyed the people, office, and impact you got to be a part of. However, we are sorry to hear that you felt that politics got in the way. We strive to create an inclusive environment and want it to be a safe space for all employees to feel comfortable in sharing their perspectives. We value the unique perspectives that each of us brings.

Pros

Great pay, great perks, great location and remote opps

Cons

Departments compete against each other and leadership seems to live in a bubble about the "good" they are doing for students. They seem more interested in marketing to students than helping them out. Selling is the bottom line.
