Pros

A majority of the people you work with are

Cons

Management is a clown show. The same managers and executives have held their positions for years. For the last few years, edmentum has had a difficult time meeting the sales goals and quotas set for the fiscal year. Their best solution for curving this trend has been to fire everyone. If these goals were attainable, there wouldn't be a problem. But, Edmentum has placed lofty goals on the employees because of data derived from the pandemic. What they seem to not understand is that they are wrong. It does not matter how long you've been with edmentum or how hard you've worked in recent years. They have been letting go of all-stars because of their miscalculations. Right now they are firing these people to bring in bright shiny new faces who don't know any better, or who hasn't been there too see this downward slide. I think it's time to reassess and see that the employee is not the problem, but the "leaders" are the sole source of the issue. Unfortunately, everyone in management is buddy buddy. They will fight to the edge of the earth for each other, but the employees doing ALL of the legwork are expendable. Quite sad to see where this once great company has fallen to. I do not recommend edmentum for anybody. They used to care about their employees and customers. But now all they care about is the bottom line, and I am curious to see how far below that line they will go.

Pros

Edmentum offers a professional, supportive, and well-organized environment. The hiring and training process is smooth and thorough, preparing teachers to teach virtually with confidence. Team members are always helpful and encouraging, and educators are truly valued and appreciated

Cons

Since all work is done remotely, there can be a sense of isolation at times compared to an in-person school environment. Building connection takes more effort in a virtual setting, but Edmentum collaborative culture and regular check-ins help maintain a sense of community.

Pros

Remote, flexibility, students, not much more…

Cons

Constant lay offs and restructuring year after year. Zero job security. Top heavy company who finds ways to create new positions for their friends to earn a higher salary. They never post these new positions for anyone to have an opportunity to apply, rather just hand them out to their favorites (who are all under qualified). VP of instruction is constantly throwing new ideas to grow the business hoping one sticks instead of focusing on what is currently working and refining from there. This results in constant restructuring, lay-offs and rehires. Charges customers for services they never receive. Revolving door of teachers who are not properly trained which results in a lack of consistency for student expectations. Overwhelmed middle management and inaccessible upper management. Student enrollment continues to drop due to poorly organized upper leadership.
