Pros

The people are amazing, and I enjoy almost everyone I work with. Winter break office closure, wellness days, LinkedIn Learning access, new hire stipend, everyone is remote, friends I make on Slack, company events are fun, mostly female company, and my manager is awesome. I've worked at start-ups before, and this is by far the best one I have worked at.

Cons

There are times of the year when work life balance is hard and you are working LONG days. There was a layoff in March that no one saw coming because there was a lack of transparency in how the company was performing. Having worked in a start-up before the layoff is not new for me, but I have lost trust in leadership because there was no indication that the company wasn't doing well before the layoffs (unless you work in sales?).

Thank you for sharing your thoughtful review of the company. It's great to hear that you have had such a positive experience with many aspects of your job, from the amazing people you work with to the various perks and benefits offered, like wellness days, LinkedIn Learning access, and more. It's fantastic that your manager has been a positive influence as well. However, it's important to address the cons you've mentioned. It's understandable that during certain times of the year, work-life balance can be challenging. Finding ways to support our people’s well-being and avoid burnout is important to us. Honest feedback like your's can be instrumental in driving positive change and promoting a better workplace for everyone. Lastly, it’s unfortunate that some reviews on this platform have exhibited a gender bias. We are proud to be a women-led organization, and encouraging an inclusive and supportive work environment is essential to us.

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
