Pros

Good benefits, personal time off.

Cons

Unprofessional HR management. Direct reports treated poorly: micro managed, bullied, “confidential” doesn’t exist with this company. Passive-aggressive behavior is rampant.

Pros

Folks are nice. Pay is decent. Work is mostly interesting.

Cons

Management is pretty terrible. Because of the organization of the teams collaboration between teams is really not incentivized and so interactions between many teams feels quite adversarial as you fight over who's "points" are going to be used to accomplish some task. I've never worked somewhere with this sort of behavior and it is seriously frustrating. We're trying to ship a product as a company. I don't care if your team is going to miss a deadline or doesn't have enough points to do something... the work has to get done and we need to work together to get it done.

Renaissance Learning Response

Thanks for expressing your concerns about agile. The planning we do is standard to the scaled agile approach: Big Room Planning at the epic level. The goal is to give everyone on the team visibility into the epic and create a basis for the iterative decision-making. Totally appreciate the need to constantly flex and iterate from the initial thoughts.
