Pros

Standard big company benefits, global teams in India and Israel. Some old timers are nice.

Cons

No work-life balance. Changing plans at the last minute to increase stock price and revenue. Top-down decision-making by C-level. No diversity in engineering leadership or other top levels. No innovation. No plan to improve products that let students cheat because it will affect revenue. Promote people who don’t question decisions made at the top. Retaliation against those who speak up for improvement. Many people have left in the last 10 months. Lots of reorgs.

Advice to Management
