Leadership Increased the Pressure Suddenly, and Thing Got Worse with Time

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The company is into developing several print and digital solutions that meet the need of types of language learners.

Cons

When I think about the my experience here, I feel regret. The work pressure was insane here. The people in leadership roles were awful. They started building the pressure from the start, and it made the workplace chaotic and stressful. I had no choice but to leave to protect myself and avoid burnout.

Good product and vision but management leads with intimidation and inconsistency...

Business Outlook

Pros

Excellent products, wonderful co-workers who are smart, creative and some departments are happier than others. Company wide get togethers that are fun...

Cons

Very political environment and management team is somewhat disjointed with a mix of strong and weak managers. Also, people seem to get fired at the drop of the hat for what seems to be very arbitrary issues. At the same time, there are deadwood and incompetents who seems to be able to hang on for years... Company actions can border on unethical at times.
