Pros

The company hires good hearted people drawn to the mission of helping schools and students. Great benefits and unlimited sick/vacation time for salaried employees. The company is always growing, changing and evolving and welcomes feedback so there is never a dull or stagnate moment. A day does not go by without collaboration or communication across departments.

Cons

Constant turn over with poorly defined systems and processes. The good processes are forgotten when the good leaders leave and the bad processes are not analyzed to determine why they didn't work. Years of technology debt are catching up. Company culture is growing less genuine. There was a time when the VPs made visits to schools the company served and they were able to see first hand what the provider and client experience was like. Aside from number in reports, the senior leadership in place now is not as in tune with the provider and client experience.

Pros

+ the colleagues I have worked with are delightful and driven to serve the students + my teammates are helpful and willing to pitch in + work life balance depends on the school season but overall manageable for being fully remote + company presentations are informative, highly scripted, and professional

Cons

- annual raises are stingy and below the inflation rate - the executive team and next level down leadership team are constantly turning over, which is exhausting - every c-suite title leader has changed in the last three years except for the CEO - the company strategy is unclear and my team's responsibilities have several times - it's clear that some teams are favorited way more than others (look at who they're hiring) - DEI has all but disappeared since the Chief People Officer left a few years ago
