Pros

Some of the people I work with are very talented and proficient at their job and easy to work with.

Cons

Management does not care about the wellbeing of the employees and very robotic. Very low pay with little chance of raises. Always trying to cut costs and corners instead of trying to make their employees happy. Instead, they keep on acquiring companies and laying people off and not backfilling roles. Employees are getting exhausted taking on so much work without the extra pay. It is a shame because they create a product which helps kids learn so you think management would be more caring but unfortunately it's not the case.

Pros

IXL software is used by millions of students. It's well designed and allows teachers to customize lesson plans according to state or other standards.

Cons

All decisions are made by two top leaders. Not just big decisions. Everything, including facility management, mid-level hiring, technologies used, even office decor. I assume this worked well as a smaller company, but at this point it means that VPs are essentially order-takers without the authority to act towards goals. Decisions are slow and there's a general fear of action. Employees are treated like contractors. There's no attempt to move people to new projects or support career growth. Solid people are fired at the same time the career page lists an identical title and position.
