Pros

The mission, in theory, is positive

Cons

Culture is horrendous. No one knows how to do their jobs (no training) so there are frequent disagreements bandaged by lazy leadership telling people to “just get along” and forcing them to do icebreakers like the first day of 9th grade. Leaders are inexperienced and embarrassingly apathetic to concerns of their team. Employees are passionate and eager to learn but this company is a disaster. Such a sad outcome of a place that claims such passion for progressing the field of special ed. Company wide issues, turnover, etc make using this product a nightmare for school districts, many which are already crumbling, and the product ultimately ends up doing more harm than good in some of these classrooms. The company is now owned by Bane and it is incredibly apparent that the focus is growing quickly so it can be sold for a profit in the next year or two. I don’t know a single employee who hasn’t already quit or is planning to in the near future. I wish I could take this experience off my resume because it was an embarrassment to be associated with this organization.

Pros

Flexible, seemed like a supportive environment at the time

Cons

No clear expectations. Seemed very supportive and understanding but then let me go. More travel than what was originally communicated in the interview.
