Pros

I absolutely love working for Accelerate Education. Though, the company feels and it small, there is a lot of growth of the company and teams. I love that for a company that provides education for K-12 really cares about the learning experience for children, their coaches, the teacher and all the schools that are part of the daily business. When you come to work, it is fast on some days, there are always things to learn, new clients, and new opportunities to learn and grow with the company. The leadership team works very very hard to not only make great strategic goals for the future of the company, but they don't lose site of their employees and staff. Everyone has time to train and learn. As a manager, I have an "open door" policy which is really promoted within to allow for communication so decisions made does not hinder growth and happiness to all the departments and teams. We also have great benefits for a small company. I am happy to be part of AE for a few years now and looking forward to the future!

Cons

Like all growing companies, there are some growing pains, but I am not sure this is even a con. Things change though, so something that was introduced as a process 6 months ago, may change now with the addition of a new department/manager so you always need to keep an open mind to that.

Pros

Communication is superb throughout projects. Even though it is fully remote work, you are never left alone and always encouraged to contact teammates in the case you need help. The work can be fun and challenging and has really grown my skills in video production.

Cons

The lack of in person meetings always creates that seperation and makes you feel alone in your work but they Accelerate every year does a good job of actively combating that.

Pros

It was honest work. Becomes a little tedious at times, but all computer work does. I typically had a clear schedule of what the day required, and could execute most days without being disturbed or sidetracked with other things. The staff for the most part was friendly and professional.

Cons

Management and communication channels got a bit messy when things got messed up. There wasnt clear protocol or action, it was always "trying to put out a fire". So, this would require us to jump to different task, and entirely shift gears, while management continued to drive progress and expect deadlines to be met. I guess most jobs work this way to a degree, but it didnt feel authentic, it more so felt like a method to make us move quicker or what have you. Call me crazy lol And, also, the amount of scheduled and unnecessary meetings, becomes a bit annoying and monotonous. Seemed like more of a way to personally check in, rather than conveying the task at hand. Most things, like most jobs, could have been emailed lol All in all, its a job. You could always find things to complain about but it wasnt such a bad time. Sometimes long days until you get the hang of things, but it was a relatively good position. Companies arent this perfectly run system, everyday is a work in progress. So, essentially what I'm saying is, I'd apply if I was you. Good luck!
