Pros

-Great product that has potential. -Mission is meaningful. -Employees are amazing, talented people who genuinely care.

Cons

-Lack of trust in employee expertise or feedback -Projects are nearly always chaotic, rushed, inadequately managed -Scattered and broken processes that make things more complicated -Toxic positivity; critical concerns dismissed -"Startup life;" is the go-to excuse for the avoidable (unreasonable expectations, poor planning, erratic changes.) -Problematic treatment from some upper staff of lower-level staff continues unchecked (micromanaging, manipulative, passive-aggressive) -Experience, knowledge, and contributions of employees who are not in upper management are not valued.

Thank you for the advice. After receiving this and other team members’ feedback, questioning and really listening, the CEO has taken the necessary actions to make sure that a similar situation that you have experienced does not happen again. There have been changes in the leadership team, guidelines and new practices put in place to keep a pulse on how each staff member is feeling. We appreciate your honesty, all that you contributed to Classcraft and we wish you all the best.
