Pros

Employee benefits have been amazing. PTO, Sick time, Holiday, and Maternity/paternity are all well above average. The Renaissance software itself is pretty competitive in the market and we're definitely one of the top k-12 software providers for assessment and practice programs.

Cons

New sales leadership is headed in the wrong direction and you can feel it across the organization. They promise to take care of the people, but then refuse to compensate accordingly. The comp plans go up 33% and out OTE stays the same, which boils down to us making 33% less off what we're actually bringing in. There has been a lot of people leaving for competitors and I think it will continue until something changes. I've talked with people throughout the sales organization and there is a growing frustration that Renaissance has past its peak with how we are treated and paid.

Pros

Some of the most amazing people you’ll ever work with. Generally supportive peers. Leaders are kind and not intentionally toxic. Strong brand recognition and a variety of solutions to enable solution selling.

Cons

The culture of the organization seems to have succumbed to the broader climate surrounding politics and education. Immense pressure is placed on sales team to deliver in saturated territories with beyond unachievable quotas for some and cake quotas for others. No cost of living increases, lots of layoffs and unclear path for growth with an egregious lack of transparency from leadership about the glaring issues. NONE of this seems intentional or malicious-it just seems like a lot of behaviors caused by extreme desperation.
