Layoff Central - Anonymous employee Skilljar Employee Review

+ People truly care about our mission to create a skills-based economy, and we have a ton of customers doing really amazing things with the product. + Great new leadership. In the last 18 months, we've brought on new GTM leaders who are setting clear direction & priorities. We also just brought on new R&D leaders who have very relevant experience. The senior leadership seem aligned on direction and priorities. + The company is profitable, which puts us into a better position to weather any future challenges. We are also still doing promotions and compensation changes and culture events. + Transparency. The company has a very transparent and communicative culture. + We continue to grow as a business. + Flexibility of remote work combined with occasional in person meetings.

- Over the last year we have been shifting into performance based culture, which requires us all to revisit what we are doing and get out of our comfort zones. - Like most tech companies, we are expected to deliver without incremental headcount. This forces everyone to align around priorities, and to think differently. - It's a small company. You need to be comfortable with ambiguity and change. - The product surface area is very large. This adds complexity to customer facing interactions.

- WFH - good pay

- bad communication - hard to decide tasks
