Pros

I gravitated towards working at Goalbook because of our commitment to ALL STUDENTS. had worked in special education for a decade and often found myself being one of few focused on the needs of special education students. It was an isolating experience, and I found myself looking for a space where the needs of all students were a priority. In my current role as a school success manager, I am responsible for ensuring that the Goalbook implementation is successful at over 150 schools. I most enjoy working with educators and equipping them with Goalbook and the tools they need to successfully support students with disabilities. It is incredible to hear educators say, “Wow, I wish I had this tool earlier in my career.” I have learned a lot about special education priorities across a diverse group of schools and districts. As someone passionate about special education, this has been invaluable as I feel that I truly understand the needs of schools and districts as it pertains to special education equity. Additionally, everyone at Goalbook is smart, dedicated, and passionate about ensuring that all students succeed in our education system. I have never worked somewhere before where I can truly say that everyone is pure in their intent and aligned to a common goal.

Cons

The interview process can be long, but it is WORTH IT!

Pros

As a former educator and instructional coach, I was drawn to Goalbook's focus on supporting all students and the specific attention to improving instructional practice for all educators. I’ve been a District Success Manager for the past three years, where I support our partners as they implement Goalbook. One of my favorite parts of the role is strategizing with district leaders, helping them think through creative ways to solve instructional challenges, and then supporting them to execute their plan. I love interacting with our partners in person and traveling to deliver PD where I am able to see how beneficial our tool is for teachers around the country. As a company, I love the openness to feedback and growth. There is true dedication to leverage the unique experiences we all bring and to learn from one another. Things evolve and change constantly, which is a testament to the importance of awareness and reflection. In addition, the people that work at Goalbook are one of a kind - lunchtime and casual discussions are filled with humor and real talk.

Cons

Situated in the heart of Silicon Valley, building a diverse team is challenging. While we still have some work to do in this regard, Goalbook is committed to this work and understands the importance of our company reflecting the diversity in our schools.

Pros

Goalbook's mission truly guides the decisions we make in our daily work. As the Math Project Analyst, I get to think about how we can ensure that all our math content truly makes it possible to empower educators so that ALL students to succeed. The people here are so genuinely committed to the mission, and are also a highly intelligent and skilled bunch to collaborate with. The community at Goalbook is upbeat and positive; I believe this is a direct result of gathering a group of people working together towards a mission they each believe in!

Cons

Transitioning from working in a physical school building to a fully remote position can be jarring. However, the entire company is remote, and there are optional, weekly opportunities to connect informally with folks throughout the company, so that really helps! Goalbook is really strategic and intentional in making sure that we build a strong, remote community. There are also undeniable benefits to working from home!
