Pros

IXL has a great product and a strong company culture. It's a great place to start out a career in Education Sales in the k-12 market.

Cons

Very specific in how they want you to sell with little room to be yourself in their selling model. Growing quickly and lots of changes occurring that are good, but they struggle to understand the perspective from the sales model from the field. Most sales folks are former educators and not from a sales background which is both great but could also be their demise.

Pros

- Depending on the team, you can have a good work/life balance - Given they hire a lot of new grads who are building a community in the area, it's pretty easy to get involved in social groups and make friends in the office

Cons

- Depending on the team, you may have poor work/life balance - Top-down culture - many typical responsibilities a given role would have (at least in engineering or product) in other companies are separated out. While not necessarily good or bad, it can catch people who are used to more autonomy in their decisions off-guard - Slow growth trajectory in roles and experience / learning which can be unfortunate for those starting off in their careers - Immature feedback / leveling loop - It was fairly common that people got feedback or temperature checks from more casual conversations with peers or other teams rather than formal reviews or manager conversations
