Pros

Work from home, good people, neat product

Cons

Micromanaged aggressively, no systematic or effective operations leadership, questionable ethics when it comes to outsourcing and email marketing, zero promotion of work life balance: slacked on weekends, evenings, early mornings, holidays. Toxic culture all around. Five executive level turnovers in less than sixth months. Intentionally sets unreachable goals and then the CEO gets frustrated when you don’t hit those goals.

Thank you for taking the time to write out your thoughts. We just completed our first employee engagement survey and have clear steps to take to improve in some areas while maintaining what people love about working here. We're not perfect, but we're listening. Although critical feedback like this can be hard to take in, it's often the most important kind, and I am grateful for it. As an early stage and fully remote company, we find ourselves in ever-changing and often ambiguous situations. We have ambitious and challenging goals because we believe it's what the world needs. And we are still a small team where each person has a tremendous impact on the growth and direction of our business. The pace of a fast-growing startup is certainly different from the pace of a large and established company, and as such, we recognize that our culture is not for everybody. We do believe in work-life balance--being effective during work hours so that you can completely unplug at nights and on the weekends. Sometimes urgent things do come up, because we are a 24/7 resource for millions of students and educators. and they depend on us. No team member should shoulder that burden alone, and we are working on expanding the team to ease these growing pains. We are truly grateful for your contributions and take your feedback to heart as we go forward.

Pros

Decent to good pay - If you can create lessons at a good pace can easily see $25+ an hour. Works from home - obviously a huge perk Showcase my work - I have all of my lessons recorded in one place now, sure down the road will be useful if I am looking for fulltime gigs. Helps students - I like to think my lessons are being viewed by lots of students trying to find good study resources.

Cons

Can be an adjustment teaching without a class. Some of the problems take too long to answer impacting your per hour rate - Not sure how they can fix this, just have to be aware of which problems you accept.
