Renaissance Learning reviews

Horrible on boarding experience, too many acquisitions of companies that were fully functioning on their own. Truly, a Frankenstein of a company. Multiple rounds of layoffs. Management at all levels was an absolute joke. Clearly some were promoted just because of tenure and have very few management skills. So many incredible people have left because of the toxic environment. Little to no work life balance. I had seen field consultants traveling for two weeks at a time. Very low compensation compared to other companies.

Having been laid off due to the Blackstone acquisition and company reorg, I realize how lacking Renaissance Learning is. I mean this technologically in the Ed. Tech space and the way they treat their employees. I saw talented people get laid off without any consideration. People well above my pay grade and experience just disappeared overnight. There's also the mixed messages from leadership saying growth in one direction while not taking accountability for their failed projects. I highly recommend finding another career path while you're still employed- it was really challenging writing the narrative when you're unemployed and looking for a new job. It's much easier getting a new job while currently employed. Make no mistake, they will remove you like a line on an excel sheet.
