Good experience. Quality and fulfilling work.

Reimbursements took forever to get back to employees. This made constant travel difficult.

Pros

The majority of the implementors of curriculum and coaching were wonderful people with great ambition and expertise. So I guess they somehow attracted the right people

Cons

Hard to find a place to start: - this company hardly had a "curriculum" but managed to sell to districts around the country on it - the CEO was 99% absent. There was no vision, no quarterly goals, not yearly outlook, no regular cadence of meetings--you know the most basic managerial stuff you'd implement with a distributed team. He didn't come to conferences we hosted with our clients. Unreachable most of the time by his direct reports. At times inboxes were flooded with 10-20 emails from the CEO that were written at 2am answering a bunch of questions with 0% chance of actually making progress toward a decision - Highly nepotistic: Family run business and most the direct reports were friends. Would have been fine if they listened to anyone who actually had a degree in education or had spent formal time in the classroom - Everything was bottlenecked. There was next to zero innovation toward becoming sustainable

Sorry that you were most likely impacted by company-wide covid layoffs during a very difficult season within education. However, there is no need to attempt to degrade the company’s positive reputation. This includes the statement about Code To The Future’s curriculum, which is not true. Our curriculum has been adopted in schools across the nation, and is highly respected for its positive impact on thousands of students. There have been seasons where it may have seemed our CEO was not as available, as he was either traveling to visit district partners, in meetings, working with the leadership team, etc. To address your points of emails coming in late, there was a season the CEO had to work from Europe, which may have caused the emails you claimed to come in late. The leadership team during the time of your employment was made up of experienced individuals who the CEO hired based on their skills and the value they brought to the organization. To be very clear, none of those individuals were personal friends when they were first hired, so to claim nepotism is untrue.
