Pros

Management was positive and encouraging best practices to be successful. I worked in a growing territory, and my commission structure was excellent. The team was helpful and collaborative. Benefits are good and flexible scheduling was perfect for my home life.

Cons

The company merged with PLATO and became Edmentum. There is no transparency from leadership. Most of the good managers and team members have left due to unreasonable demands from higher level executives. There is no stability and team meetings were negative and demeaning.

Pros

Benefits, people you work with

Cons

Management is poor. Employees don't trust the executive leadership. The CEO wants employees to work long hours for little pay. He wants employees to be engaged in their jobs and make suggestions to his open door, but employees don't want to approach him and suggestions aren't received. There is a fake perception of communication to employees with little meetings here and there; it is all the same talk over and over. No one is inspired. The company operations aren't organized. Go back to being a big fish in a little pond (private). The majority of managers have no management experience. No matter how they try to spin it, there are no opportunities here professionally.
