Pros

Colleagues are decent, kind people.

Cons

Hedge fund investors are destroying the company. So many lay offs. Terrible communication regarding the restructuring. It’s a mess and such a shame. I used to be proud to work here.

Pros

Good benefits and work life balance

Cons

The company is owned by a hedge fund. Any sale you get or thing you do is being taken advantage of by 10 different layers of sociopaths. They pretend to care about education but they do absolutely no innovation. Simply using the same old text books that are overpriced and finding different ways to manipulate the text books to fool admin that are too busy to busy to know what’s truly good for their students and simply suck $$$ out of them. If you care about students lives go somewhere else as this is a complete facade.

Pros

co workers are very friendly

Cons

Nothing else. It was filled with lies, worry and no sense of security. Just follow profit and have no concern for the employees
