Pros

Working at Imagine Learning has had a huge impact on my life. I have felt so appreciated for the work I do and feel like the work I do is making a difference. The compensation has been better than I expected and more opportunities have come my way. I have enjoyed my work so much I continue to pass on other job opportunities. This place has a great culture and I feel like the leadership team really cares about my family and me.

Cons

There aren't a ton of opportunities for advancement.

Thank you for taking time to offer a review on working at Imagine Learning. We are so happy that you feel appreciated and that you feel you are making a difference, because you are! Even though you say there aren't a ton of opportunities for advancement, you must be doing a great job because you have seen more opportunities come your way. Even though our company is relatively small, we are growing rapidly and that has recently created a lot of opportunities for employees to take on new roles. We are also working on providing employees with assignments and opportunities to learn new skills, earn new titles, and receive pay increases. We value our employees tremendously, and we desire to reward their unique skills and the ways in which they show innovation. For passionate employees, there is always room to grow at Imagine Learning.

Great Company -- everyone should want to work here

Pros

This is an organization with a mission that you can get behind and feel great about -- helping kids learn to read so they can get an education and have a shot at life. Additionally: Flat organization means anyone can talk to leadership about anything, friendly people, plenty of celebrating & food, and (from what I can tell) slightly above average pay. Good benefits and time off policies.

Cons

Because we have to respond to the market (like successful and real companies have to do), sometimes we have to adjust priorities and change what we are doing. I know some people don't like that. Promotion opportunities exist, but not to the same degree they would in a Fortune 100 company.

Pros

Working in the field has some enormous advantages. I would highly recommend it. Working with teachers / principles is great, best of all is seeing actual progress and growth with students in schools.

Cons

very difficult to advance. Nepotism is rampant, although shrinking. Sales runs the roost. many support folks are treated as 2nd class to the sales organization. Nobody polices what is fairly abusive behavior by the sales team as long as they reach quota, they are untouchable.

Thank you for writing a review. It sounds like you really love working with educators, and you're passionate about helping children, and that makes us thrilled to have you on our team! As you undoubtedly know, our sales and support teams work hand in hand to provide sustainable support for our educational partners. Our support employees are an essential part of taking care of our customers, and they are extremely important to us. Likewise, our sales team members are dedicated, passionate, and persistent—and they have been extremely successful. We have industry-standard sales incentives in place, and we feel they are working well, motivating the sales team to deliver consistently good results. Given the above dynamics, we don't tolerate "abusive behaviors." We strongly encourage you to speak to your manager or human resources if you feel that unjustified things are happening so we can work to remedy the problems. We are happy to see that you have been with us for five years and hope that it will be many more!
