Pros

I'm a relatively new employee (around 3 months) and one of the things that sold me to CA were the glowing reviews on Glassdoor. Well, it's true! It's hard to believe how great the work/life balance is, work-from-home flexibility, great compensation + benefits, and a lot of incredibly smart, talented people who really care about the mission to serve young students. I never feel micro-managed, everyone is supportive and encouraging.

Cons

I came from a much smaller company, and CA does feel a bit corporate (I'm sure as you've read, the company grew exponentially over the past few years and is still growing). Diversity is still somewhat developing (I'm a young minority woman and much of what I see especially in senior management are older white men). There's quite a learning curve here because of the complexities of the product/processes, but as long as you're patient with it you'll be fine.

We deeply appreciate your overview of your experience as a CA employee. As you mentioned, CA offers a competitive benefits package that supports a sound work-life balance. Moreover, CA operates under an “embrace all” value that helps managers to build their teams around solid support and common ground. This is especially important, as CA is indeed increasing its employee numbers, now more than ever! CA is ever-evolving, in size and in process, and we are grateful you’ve been part of that development. -Shrina
