Pros

The company is going through a period of rapid expansion and with that come new opportunities and challenges - you can definitely make an impact at this point. That's exciting! The company is actively investing in it's employees through newly remodeled floor plans and programs designed to increase efficiency across the board. It's refreshing to see a company actively pushing for the benefit of it's employees. The company hosts game nights, trivia outings, happy hours, sports teams and other socials that allow employees to find their niche and connect with people from other departments. Strong relationships can happen quickly. There is pretty universal excitement amongst employees about the products that we're creating. The core vision is still heavily focused on education and making better platforms for learning. Money is important, but it's really more of an offshoot of building solid products that meet a need. Compensation is very competitive for the area.

Cons

The company has gone through a lot of growth in the last couple of years. IXL still needs some time to build out stronger infrastructure for continued growth.

Pros

- Depending on the team, you can have a good work/life balance - Given they hire a lot of new grads who are building a community in the area, it's pretty easy to get involved in social groups and make friends in the office

Cons

- Depending on the team, you may have poor work/life balance - Top-down culture - many typical responsibilities a given role would have (at least in engineering or product) in other companies are separated out. While not necessarily good or bad, it can catch people who are used to more autonomy in their decisions off-guard - Slow growth trajectory in roles and experience / learning which can be unfortunate for those starting off in their careers - Immature feedback / leveling loop - It was fairly common that people got feedback or temperature checks from more casual conversations with peers or other teams rather than formal reviews or manager conversations
