Pros

It was a healthy work culture and strong team. The products were high quality, both on the BetterLesson side with coaching, workshops, and learning walks, and on the ABL side for data analysis and scheduling.

Cons

It did not have a good market fit in this current US Education market, which lead to devastating lay offs.

Pros

In general, the school clients are lovely to work with and some of the other contractors are highly skilled and professional.

Cons

I can't stress this enough: If you are a contractor, do NOT sign on with this company. In the past year, they have never paid on time according to the contract or scope of work. They often do not reimburse contractors for travel for months at a time. They are currently three months behind on payments to contractors. There is a great underlying insecurity at the company. Every time a pay period comes around, contractors wonder if they will be paid. The answer? No. For the past 6 months, contractors receive mass emails saying when they MIGHT be paid and these dates often come and go with no payment. There is no direct message from the company's leadership. Bottom line: if you want to feel valued as worker AND you want to get compensated for your labor, as agreed, steer clear of this organization.
