      Pros

      The other curriculum developers were great.

      Cons

      Management lacked diversity, knowledge, understanding of target market, genuine concern for employees, and honesty. CEO is the worst of them all.

      I would like to address some of your negative feelings toward the company. - 75% of our external VP hires have been minority and/or female. - Already at that time, our leadership team had years of combined education and teaching experience. - Code To The Future values team members by offering competitive salaries, paid vacation, fun company activities, and medical plans because we genuinely care about the well being of each person on our team. - Our CEO is well respected by team members, our partner schools, and parents in the communities that we serve. The “advice to management” does not offer specific constructive feedback, but I would like to close by saying this post seems like it is part of the group of negative posts that came from team members who unfortunately had to be let go during the height of the pandemic in parallel to school closures.

      Toxic, unethical, and aimless

      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      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.

      Pros

      Great coworkers, my immediate boss has always been great and caring, most people seem to love what they're doing here. Happy kids and happy parents always make things better.

      Cons

      Things seem a bit disorganized. I've always been told things are going well and expanding in my area, but there doesn't often seem to be any major results from this.
