Pros

The coworkers, and the ping pong. Free lunch Wednesday was great.

Cons

Everything else. I was laid off shortly after being hired, and soon thereafter rehired. I should have known better, but needed the money to pay back the cost of the school. They then opened two new campuses! Sounds like the money just comes and goes with awful mismanagement. I'm sure some of it has to do with the **church** found next door. I was accidentally sent an email about myself sent by "superiors", claiming my suggestion for better video quality and subtitles in a course was 'worthless and needing of correction'. Who talks like that? I was reprimanded for giving honest advice, because I didn't follow their sheet on how to address my superiors. Absence of culture, respect, benefits, and virtually no opportunity for advancement.

Pros

There are no pros to working here.

Cons

Employees are referred to as “subordinate” and management as “superiors”. Not inclusive culture. Closed to any new ideas. Very high risk exposure company. As they grow they will encounter more issues. Employees can be heard making fun of potential candidates and current workers. Other employees show animosity towards those with advanced degrees. Very low pay and no benefits. Culture resistant to change and weeds out those who would suggest change. Not many negative reviews because they quickly get rid of anyone who has an issue with how they are treated before they care enough to write a review. Not a disgruntled former employee, but one who is disgusted and appalled by their business practices.
