Run, don’t walk - not worth your energy! - Anonymous employee IXL Learning Employee Review

-top down, uber corporate environment -unnatural dysfunctional communications within and across functions (no responses to questions, messages, emails etc unless it’s from a special CEO/COO direct line of interest; engineering doesn’t talk to product or marketing etc) -NO real strategy (they’re just coasting off the core business) -zero faith that their current leadership team is actually good at leading teams, people, and managing for growth (to quote someone else: senior leaders at IXL would not be hired ANYWHERE else for their roles and are utterly incompetent at core parts of what their JDs are; that’s also likely why they’ve all been at IXL for so long, no one else would hire them…) -don’t value expertise (CEO/COO dictate all, handful of leaders have been there for a while being their minions, and almost ALL ICs are extremely junior and inexperienced, perfect cogs in a wheel) -don’t value diversity -toxic culture where any disagreement results in layoff (any employees who ask questions or point out possible concerns get fired and then scapegoated for all problems) -not innovative (tech and product looks like its leadership team: dinosaurs from the oracle era) -pay is under market (pretend there is no equity when really it’s that they want to continue to bamboozle employees into believing it’s common to NOT disclose full details about compensation packages)
