Great Staff and Teachers
May 22, 2023 - Graduate Student in Phoenix, AZRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Galvanize goes above and beyond for their students and clients.

Good culture / Poor upward mobility or inter-org transparency
Jun 7, 2023 - Anonymous EmployeeRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Great culture where people genuinely seem motivated by making a difference for students. Mission driven. Forward thinking.
Cons
Somewhat on the way to break the blockers and silos between teams but it still feels disconnected and almost never know what other teams are doing. Seen a lot of great people leave or get let go that should have been more valued and/or given a promotion.

Micromanagement and high turnover culture
Mar 1, 2023 - Ops SpecialistRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
The company has a strong brand and reputation in the industry. They offer health insurance. The company offers remote work.
Cons
In my opinion, these are the cons: The toxic workplace culture is causing a high turnover rate and negative impact on employee mental health. The punitive management style is stifling creativity and innovation among staff. The disorganized executive leadership is causing inefficiencies and missed opportunities.

Amazing Team
Oct 24, 2022 - Software Engineering Writer/Instructor in Denver, CORecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Really rewarding, mission-driven job with brilliant and creative teammates. It's fun and deeply fulfilling to get to know the students as they progress through big steps in learning and changing their career direction. Great work-life balance! Really supportive environment. Really solid benefits through Stride, the parent company. Super-flexible remote work. Kind team members and responsive leadership. Strong values placed on ethics, diversity and inclusion. Instructors are given a lot of creative freedom in shaping their lessons and helping to build new features in the learning management systems.
Cons
None so far - the curriculum is new, so there's iterative improvements being made, always with student interests at heart. A lot of data being collected on how students are doing from lecture to lecture, and where improvements need to be made.
- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Management really values the individuals that join the team and take work-life balance into consideration.
Cons
Salaries tend to be on the lower end.
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Literally none but it asks for 5 words

Benefits don't compare (and unequal depending on department), executive leadership doesn't care for the team, aren't able to exceed market rate for fair pay, and more.

Cons
Bad and ever changing upper management who couldn't figure out what to do with their money and had a poor understanding of what the company did/
