The glow wore off quickly - Anonymous employee Weejee Learning Employee Review

Thank you for taking the time to submit a review. We read each and every one, and take them to heart. We’d like to respond to your project scoping comment first, as we think it is an issue that does take some consideration and knowledge of the e-learning business as a whole. Scoping a project is always hard as there are many variables at stake that can simply change at the drop of a hat. We try to do our best in considering all factors when scoping for projects with the information known at that time. We are also moving more and more projects to agile project management which will not only change the processes we use but will also allow for better adaptability for projects. The new PM tool that we have switched to will also allow more insight into which pieces of the project take more or less time, and we will be able to adjust future scopes of projects accordingly. Weejee Peeps wear many different hats, and during busy times, that may mean – like any job – that you put in more hours that week than usual. But that is not the norm. We value someone who can get their work done well in 38 hours, and spend the rest of the time enjoying their life outside of work. We value personal time, and know that people need that time to be more inspired and more efficient in their work. As many small companies like us do, Weejee tries to encourage learning and growth in our organization - and it is actually something we’ve recently added as a bigger internal initiative – but we also know that there are limited opportunities to advance within the company due to its size. Instead, we promote the ability to search out different elements that our Peeps may want to learn, and help them carve out time to try it. We have also looked at providing healthcare insurance for our employees. At that time, we decided that what we’d be able to provide as a small company would not benefit the employees, as many of our employees have plans with their spouses. The limited participation that we’d likely see would not be enough of a pro to outweigh the cons of the cost of the medical insurance for our business. We value each and every person who works with us at Weejee. We either succeed or fail as a team. We have increased cultural initiatives such as quarterly employee engagement surveys, implemented an unlimited vacation and sick leave policy, and improved our monthly All Hands meeting with plans to improve on many more of those cultural areas this year. Weejee is so great because of the employees and contractors who make it great each and every day. Thank you again for providing your review. -Weejee Talent Team
