Pros

- Supportive direct management - Good mission, good people

Cons

- Laid off 30% of company without notice - No opportunities for promotions, raises, or bonuses - Leadership is not transparent - Zero perks and incentives - Lack of initiative Recent change in leadership was bad news for the organization. Of the positions they laid off, they are still looking to rehire. This organization that used to once be mission-oriented, is now about office politics and who you know.

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
