Pros

- Challenging. There's never a dull moment. I spend most of my time solving problems rather than completing simple tasks. - Training is efficient. I was trained on different aspects of the job by different team members, allowing me to get to know my role and coworkers better simultaneously - Attractive office and location. The office is nice and San Mateo is a great neighboring city! - The team. Everyone is extremely nice and helpful. They run a tight, efficient, goal-oriented ship. I have very clear expectations of my role and a clear vision for what we are building. - Career growth. Lots of options for how to specialize in the Curriculum Designer role. Many others have been working here for 2+ years, and many have grown in their roles. Forecast looks good! - Flexibility. The job is "task based" in that you have weekly goals you are trying to complete. This can range from 1-10+ projects. You start off with 1-2 projects and need to complete them by the end of the week. As long as you are completing your tasks, things are good! Half the team works remote at least part of the week. - Efficient meetings. Not too many and they end early if needed.

Cons

- (Potential) Very heady job. Your brain is going to be firing on all cylinders as you troubleshoot problems and create solutions. - (Potential) Less face-to-face interaction. You might spend some days working alone at your computer. I have made friends in the office already so I'm happy to take a quick break and chat. There are a variety of clubs (and lots of people in the office in general) so it's definitely possible to avoid this con. Still...sometimes you just need to hunker down and work - (Potential) Lunch is not served in the office (the big rage in tech, we have yet to catch up). Walking lunch options are limited but not terrible. A short drive gets you to many more options.

Pros

Awesome tech team and product, friendly and not corporatey as far as people are concerned (most). Care for customers is real. Excellent benefits.

Cons

Should have hired slower and vetted people better on content team to avoid turmoil fixing this. Salaries are midrange for CA, not as high as other tech companies here.
