Mxed - pros and cons - Course Content Reviewer Aplia Employee Review

Promotes independence and success by sharing ideas and encouraging new ways to succeed.

Acquisition by Cengage provided a significant flow of revenue to expand product line, but merging the sales force with Learning Consultants (within Cengage) destroyed the ability to develop digital sales outside of the traditional Cengage publishing rep.

They pay me regularly and I had a large amount of flexibility but even then the manager I was assigned got fired and the second one tried to micromanage me offsite.

The amount of money that management takes for income is stupid crazy huge, they pay the rest of the staff a pittance and the complaints we get from students... you feel so bad for these poor students having to use the software that (doesn't work, doesn't teach and is poorly designed) isn't helping them learn. Management is only concerned with total income mangement vs total quality. The software is so poorly designed that they have trouble keeping teachers to use the software so they lie about features to keep a 3 month lock but I feel so back for the students who have to use this awfully, truly awful product. The company is in and out of bankruptcy and they treat employees like worker drones with randomly changing priorities and little to no direction other than grow, sell add accounts... and I'm a contractor not in sales. Glad I left.
