It's a great place to work. So, there is nothing bad to say.

They're doing a great job.

Pluspunten

Forward looking company with an altruistic culture in regards to customers and employees. Very strong leadership team.

Minpunten

Different directions from ownership during Private Equity transition caused some consternation and confusion around direction.

Pluspunten

- Mission driven company that is stable & growing long-term - Smart, kind & dedicated employees who genuinely care about education and products - Excellent benefits and work life balance - Cutting edge tech stack & experienced team of Engineers & ML Scientists that are modernizing an already strong product suite. Lots of data & exciting challenges - Fun working environment: snacks, ping pong,...

Minpunten

- Company at times slow to make changes - innovative but cautious as a market leader - Compensation is fair but tough to compete with inflated Bay Area startups. Benefits are great though and company is stable - Collaborative environment where people mostly work well together, but like in all cross-functional environments there can be occasional friction and people are sometimes too "nice" to share critical feedback

There's a lot of good (see pros)- keep that and continue to flex to make sure the company continues to work for its employees. Management seems aware of how the company can improve so hopefully they will continue to address those concerns. Managers should hold each other accountable, but encourage their teams to work with and not against each other by mirroring that behavior and staying aligned on common goals.

Pluspunten

Company has a relatively diverse workforce for a tech company. There are several interesting products and projects to work on; the tech can be interesting and fun if you're on the right team and have a good manager. The company is profitable and recent acquisitions have strategically made sense. Uptown Oakland is a great place to work. Hanging out with your co-workers after hours isn't really part of the culture.

Minpunten

If you interview, be sure to determine which teams and project you will be working for, and assess your future manager carefully. There are cool kids who get management favor and other teams that are resource starved and mostly dealing with tech debt. Hanging out with your co-workers after hours isn't really part of the culture.

The tech bros aren't completely kept at bay but it's generally hassle-free environment, keep it that way. Work hard to make all teams feel equally valued. Recognize outstanding first line managers, and hold people accountable who aren't first-rate.

Pluspunten

Great company culture with supportive co-workers. People are very friendly and easy to talk to. Made some very good friends here.

Minpunten

Management can't seem to make up their mind about the direction of the company. Lots of initiatives, but not a lot of completion of those initiatives. As a result, there's not a lot of vision for individual contributors; the path for personal career growth is not very clear.

Finish what you start; follow through on your initiatives.
