Pros

Majority of people are wonderful to work with Culture WAS amazing

Cons

Execs have never been execs anywhere else and it shows. There was a round of unnecessary layoffs earlier this year that show the company lacks foresight and financial planning and maturity. The roles that were eliminated shows that company is putting their hopes in a couple new unproven leaders rather than employees that were already invested and performing well. It is a shame because initially the culture at LU was the best I had ever seen. US benefits are the worst I've ever had by far.

Pros

If you’re looking for a place where your ideas matter, your teammates have your back, and leadership actually knows your name and your dog’s name, LearnUpon is it. From a sales perspective, this is the dream: ✅ A product people actually want ✅ Clear direction without micromanagement ✅ Leadership that’s transparent, approachable, and doesn’t pretend to know everything (refreshing, right?) ✅ Revenue targets that are ambitious but not soul-crushing The vibe here is “get stuff done and have a laugh doing it.” My calendar has a healthy mix of pipeline reviews and random Slack debates about the best office snack (spoiler: it’s not rice cakes).

Cons

Look, no place is perfect. We’re still ironing out a few systems as we scale—like that one tool that requires a full moon and three support tickets to log in—but it’s all part of the growth journey. And no one’s too precious to roll up their sleeves.
