Pros

- Imagine Learning offers a meaningful mission: creating high-quality educational resources that support students and educators. It’s rewarding to work on products that truly impact learning outcomes. - Collaborative teams with passionate individuals who value innovative, research-based approaches to curriculum development. - Opportunities to work on cross-functional teams and shape new resources, with plenty of autonomy for those in mid-level roles. - Support for professional growth through exposure to thought leaders and best practices in education.

Cons

- Leadership can sometimes lack transparency and clear direction, which impacts decision-making and role clarity. This has been particularly challenging during moments of organizational change or restructuring. - The chain of command and decision-making processes can be unclear, creating tension between product and curriculum teams, especially when leadership doesn’t fully value the expertise of people on the team. - Some decisions feel rushed, prioritizing deadlines over instructional quality, which can undermine long-term goals. - Limited support for employee well-being in high-pressure roles, with inconsistent feedback and recognition for achievements.

Pros

Pay is competitive. Remote work. A few days a week of regional travel at the federal compensation rate. This has been an educational entry-level job to learn the basic stakeholders and sales cycles for K-12 curriculum. The people I work with are great and knowledge/experience is a strong resource at this company.

Cons

The higher leadership of the organization does not foster a positive, collaborative culture. Different teams/regions work in silos. Any collaboration and communication happens primarily by our own individual efforts. Also, systems change yearly. It's difficult for everyone to adapt, and as a result the sales team has little faith in following the process. Job security is iffy. There has been continuous talk of eliminating my position in my state for over a year now.
