Avantages

IXL software is used by millions of students. It's well designed and allows teachers to customize lesson plans according to state or other standards.

Inconvénients

All decisions are made by two top leaders. Not just big decisions. Everything, including facility management, mid-level hiring, technologies used, even office decor. I assume this worked well as a smaller company, but at this point it means that VPs are essentially order-takers without the authority to act towards goals. Decisions are slow and there's a general fear of action. Employees are treated like contractors. There's no attempt to move people to new projects or support career growth. Solid people are fired at the same time the career page lists an identical title and position.

Avantages

- Depending on the team, you can have a good work/life balance - Given they hire a lot of new grads who are building a community in the area, it's pretty easy to get involved in social groups and make friends in the office

Inconvénients

- Depending on the team, you may have poor work/life balance - Top-down culture - many typical responsibilities a given role would have (at least in engineering or product) in other companies are separated out. While not necessarily good or bad, it can catch people who are used to more autonomy in their decisions off-guard - Slow growth trajectory in roles and experience / learning which can be unfortunate for those starting off in their careers - Immature feedback / leveling loop - It was fairly common that people got feedback or temperature checks from more casual conversations with peers or other teams rather than formal reviews or manager conversations
