Pros

Amplify is up for sale. Perhaps this will help. It could give the company the fresh start it needs to be successful once again. But, I doubt it.

Cons

Amplify is up for sale. Management has not told us much about the sale other than Amplify and News Corp have decided to part ways and another education company plus some upper level Amplify management are interested in making a major investment in Amplify. However, after shutting down an underperforming product on Monday, without any transition plan for existing customers using the product or sales deep in the pipeline, I think the company is being positioned for bankruptcy in case the sale falls apart.

Pros

There are some very dedicated, talented and well intentioned people who work there. For awhile it felt like the organization was building and doing great things. The salary felt fairly competitive with the industry standard.

Cons

Don't look too closely under the hood if you don't want to stop believing in the illusion. The product is no longer as strong as it once was, the PD and CS have gone way downhill, they care more about profit than people and they are no longer mission driven but success and money driven. They talk a good game, but many people there are ruthless so watch your back. They do a good job of making you feel like it's the best place to work and you are lucky to be there, for awhile, but when the blook is off the rose, watch out.
