Pros

Good hard working co-workers with a decent product.

Cons

Senior leadership lacks vision and makes decisions in a vacuum, without involving employees that actually do deal with customer needs. Tend to decide on course of action quickly and not stick to any one plan for enough time to determine whether it will work. Very reactionary instead of responsive. Employees not given the recognition they deserve. Mission statement that appears evident is to maximize profits and make senior leadership's bonus at any cost. No company can prosper with such narcissistic thinking.

Pros

Was founded by Dr. Darrell Ward with great ethics and a desire to serve everyone. Some of the most gifted professionals I have ever met in the mid and worker bee class. Smart, caring and have a genuine concerns for education, teachers and student. Willing to help anyone.

Cons

Purchased by an investor group in 2009 who's sole focus is the bottom line, and it shows. High turn over in management. Senior leaders are excessive in expenditures but adapt at shifting the cost burden to 1099 employee's. Bad communication processes, horrible implementation and a heavy hand at change. Management does not listen to their customer or field reps. They believe they are like Steve Jobs, their product is so good there is no need to be professional. Constant closures of all facilities, changing personnel, responsibilities, expectations.
