Pros

Work from home, decent pay

Cons

No advancement opportunities unless you are already a VP, travel expectations can be unrealistic, can't seem to figure out what the path forward is, hard workers are not promoted out of fear that they will not be able to be replaced, remote employees have to carry a lot of expenses that are not reimbursed

Great Place to Work

Pros

Serving higher education students to be successful. Good autonomy. Interesting tech projects. Team members that really want to do a great job. Moving towards a culture that amazes and attracts. New headquarters in Reston competes with any other high tech progressive company. Good salaries and benefits.

Cons

Not many, really. There are some office politics that will eventually get weeded out by the new culture but overall a great place to work.

Pros

Efficient Great communication Expectations I could expect were clearly set and followed Friendly and welcoming Professional Well staffed On-boarding portal well laid out and intuitive Pre-employment training portal setup to lead new hire without confusion Expectations for first couple weeks of employment are clear and leave little question.

Cons

Nothing negative to report. This experience exceeded expectations set by previous employers. HR concerned most concerned about my comfortable transition rather than their own time expense.
