    Pros

    Friendly coworkers Important school safety mission

    Cons

    Nonexistent DEI (eliminated #tech-diversity and #women-in-tech channels) Extreme school surveillance (all emails, shared files) with plans to add browser-based keylogging No internal ethics board, everything runs through founder CEO No position on "don't say gay" bills and reporting to school districts No position on abortion restrictions and reporting to school districts Company employs a vast number of 1099 contractors, probably in violation of new California laws Company does not post salary information in job descriptions, probably in violation of Colorado laws Company internally attempts to prevent any sharing of salary information Company salaries are well below industry standards CEO is dismissive of Covid health concerns

    We had to temporarily shut down our Women in Technology Slack channel at the request of some employees both inside and outside of the channel. The channel had some negativity taking place. It wasn’t intentional, just growing pains. We are creating some rules and guidelines and have since restarted the channels. We work hard to live by our core values, one of which is “Treat People Well.” Gaggle’s mission is to ensure the safety and well-being of students, not surveillance. For any further feedback, please reach out to jeffpatterson@gaggle.net If you want to be a part of our mission, please consider joining our team.

    It’s unfortunate to hear that your experience at Gaggle wasn’t more positive. We do our best to set our contractors up for success in order to ensure the safety of the kids we’re serving. It’s incredibly disappointing to learn that you felt the guidance you received was lacking and your interactions with management were unpleasant—we would like to learn more about this so we can address any issues and our onboarding process. Please feel free to reach out to me at paget@gaggle.net if you would like to discuss your feedback.

    Pros

    Always innovative changes Positive optimistic attitudes from leadership Encouragement to find a position that fits each employee Potential for career growth 100% remote easier to balance family/work life

    Cons

    Sometimes new products are pushed out before they're perfected, but it's with the best of intentions Occasional mixed messages from leadership (again, never with ill intention, and any miscommunication is always cleared up quickly)

    Pros

    This company is all about the employees. Very encouraging and positive environment. Negative reviews that I have seen mostly come from contractors who do not work for the company.

    Cons

    Can be very stressful. Work is weekends, holidays, all hours for many positions.

    Wonderful Place to Work

    Pros

    Gaggle is a great company and I'm so glad I work here. I believe in what we do, as does everyone here. We all feel like we're doing something worthwhile and we work together to continue to improve our product and ourselves. I love my team and I really feel like I belong here. We're 100% remote, with great benefits and great pay.

    Cons

    I can't think of anything I would change. Anytime I've approached my manager with a potential issue, we've solved it quickly and nothing is outstanding.

    Pros

    I've been with Gaggle for about two years now and love it. From my experience this is what I've noticed: Great Benefits Incredible Company Culture Co-workers are fun and supportive. Management is understanding and fair. Most importantly, our mission is worthwhile.

    Cons

    I really don't have much to add here. Any issues I've ever had were handled with grace and fairness. The only issue I could see someone having is that we are completely remote, but they really do make sure that there are enough events to keep everyone engaged.
