Advice to Management

Understand the bigger the company gets, the more "call center" policies end up being enforced. PLEASE stay away from it as much as possible. I understand some things are inevitable and will happen eventually, but I've seen too many companies go down due to bad management calls for their employees enforcing restrictive policies. Try to be innovative with new policies and don't take the easy way out just because it "works".

Pros

Insurance, collaboration, brilliant employees, great company!

Advice to Management

Greatest company I’ve ever been with, and it’s sad to see poor managers with zero experience and vindictive personalities hired on. It’s destroying the culture.

Pros

Great benefits, Free food, Good location, great cohorts.

I love my coworkers, Instructure is a fun place to work.

Advice to Management

Support is the structure that helps keep the customers happy, if support isn't happy things will continue to deteriorate as rapidly as they are.

Pros

Smart people. Excellent leadership. Strong business.

Pros

Instructure has grown like crazy over the last 8 years and has put a ton of effort into maintaining a great company culture, despite rapid growth and going public in 2015. Having worked for multiple tech companies, Instructure is about as good as it gets when it comes to office space, benefits, perks, etc.

There have been a lot of changes over the last few years in leadership at the executive level which brings both good and bad. Essentially a new chapter for the company. Current sales leadership is top notch and I'm confident they will keep things moving in the right direction. I would work for current sales leadership again without hesitation.

Pros

Good work life ballance, good benefits, good pay

Advice to Management

For years Instructure was a great place to work. Then they went public. The only thing Instructure cares about anymore is what the shareholders want. The company values have gone out the window, as has any loyalty to employees, which is very unfortunate. They have been laying off people without cause, not based on their job performance, but based on some silly gamble that they are trying to shake things up. It really is a shame. The people I worked with directly are usually great, but upper management only cares about boosting the stock price, you know, gotta get as much money as they can before they bail.
Pros
Great work/life balance, good pay and benefits.
Cons
They no longer care about their company values or culture, only money.

Pros

- Awesome benefits (100% paid healthcare, ESPP, stock options, unlimited PTO, 401K, weekly catered lunches)

- CEO is very down to earth, which trickles down to the rest of the company. He tells it how it is and his transparency influences everyone at the company.

Pros

Overall, great company to work for. Leadership believes in trusting employees to using their brain and do what's best for the business. With that comes a certain level of autonomy which makes work fun.

Advice to Management

Be authentic. Minimize back biting or else it will eat away at trust not only with each other but with those you lead.

Pros

Great benefits (medical, dental and vision). Excellent PTO.

Advice to Management

Provide more training for support staff not just for attorneys.
