Pros
- There are plenty of incredibly smart people toiling away in the cube farms of IXL. - The coffee wasn't great, but it sure was free.
Cons
- The pay is not up to industry standards for the region. - For a number of different roles, they seemed to like to hire people fresh out of top schools but who had little real-world work experience, so that they would be slower to recognize they were being exploited. - Front-line management can often be very inexperienced and inept. I often felt like my manager - who was just a couple years out of school - was speaking to me in quotes they had memorized from an Intro to Management textbook just moments before. - Upper management is basically completely inaccessible. - Management at all levels plays favorites. - The office environment is sterile and demoralizing.
