Thank you for sharing your insights and feedback. We’re happy to hear that you appreciate the benefits offerings and flexible work arrangements provided by Nelson, including time off during the summer months. We want to clarify that recent changes have been aimed at optimizing our operations as we continue to evolve in the EdTech space. These changes are made with thorough consideration and input from employees, including our company-wide engagement survey. It's important to note that we have a very low turnover rate, and any restructuring undertaken was to enhance our organizational structure rather than in response to high turnover. If you’re open to discussing your feedback further, we would welcome the opportunity to connect with you personally. Your insights are valuable to us as we strive to create an environment where all employees can thrive. Please reach out to our People and Engagement team for a confidential conversation. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts. Your feedback is integral to our growth and improvement journey.

Thank you for taking the time to provide us your feedback. We take pride in our commitment to education and strive to provide a diverse range of products to support learners and educators alike. The introduction of Edwin has been a transformative space for our industry and allows Nelson to provide updated content faster and more efficient than ever before. In addition to Edwin, Nelson has gone through some exciting transformations. This has led to our company growing significantly but may have also caused some challenges. Staff changes can indeed be disruptive; however, we are continually striving to create a stable, supportive, and creative work environment. We acknowledge that legacy products can present challenges, and we're actively working to modernize our offerings. Your feedback about data entry will be shared with the relevant teams to see if we can streamline processes and reduce unnecessary burdens. We would like to have a more in-depth chat about your experience, please reach out to us via peopleandengagement@nelson.com. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts.
