Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
What do you like best about the leadership team?
Approachable and encourage open dialog.
Any concerns I may have, they are quick to assist!
The best thing about my leadership team is that they listen. They encourage feedback and want to know what they can do to help you succeed.
The leadership team does their best to keep our students top of mind, as well as the employees, while at the same time running the company. Sometimes they move very fast, which is understandable in this field, and the communication doesn't come as fast as it could, but their intentions are good.
Their openness and honesty. They genuinely care about the wellbeing of Coding Dojo employees.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
They need to create content they didn't STEAL from other places. Espeically without giving the original author credit.
The lack of communication with this company is ridiculous. They treat their employees really bad
What is the best part about your compensation package?
I'd have to say, the paid time off. It is unlimited paid time off and to me, that is amazing.
Pet Insurance is really cool!
It is tied to things that I can control
Frequent raises if you work hard. Coding Dojo cares a lot about retention and will do what they can to keep around their best people.
Great benefits. Very generous and family oriented.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Compensation for the job you do is a joke.
What are some of the best things about your team?
They really care about our mission, our students, and keeping the company competitive. No one is passive aggressive, and the conversations are candid and open.
Everyone is very nice and everyone really cares about our company mission.
Very friendly and open. Everyone's office door is open.
I can honestly say that my coworkers are some of the kindest, most passionate people I've ever had the pleasure of working with.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Coworkers dont even know the product.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
People at Coding Dojo really care about the quality of our curriculum and the success of the students.
Coding Dojo has a very linear feel. Everyone in the company, no matter how junior or senior, has a voice.
The attitude of everyone in the building seems like nothing is a failure, just lessons.
Our environment is very warm and welcoming. Everyone is extremely nice and very transparent about their goals.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Compnay culture needs to be rewritten. It uses too many limited free apps to try to muddle through its content. Worst way to learn.
What did you like most about the interview process?
good people who really care about candidate experience interviewing
There are multiple layers of conversations, and it gives both sides time to see if the fit is right.
The communication. HR takes great care of you during the interview process and they're very transparent and ethical in how they recruit. Alyssa is a joy to work with and makes the interview process very enjoyable.
The screenings, mostly because I conduct them.
Everyone is very friendly, welcoming, and transparent.
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Interview for the job not some fantasy made up thing
What makes you most happy at work?
I get to help people learn and that is very rewarding.
When we are working together as a team, solving problems that will set us up for success.
We are genuinely invested in helping people transform their lives. There is real growth potential in the market, the leadership is very open to trying new things and things move very quickly so every employee has the opportunity to have a real impact and learn a lot in the process.
The work that I do is incredibly rewarding and our culture is a breath of fresh air, especially for someone coming from a stuffy corporate background.
Interacting with those internal and external to the company
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Stop plagerizing other peoples work and passing it off as your own.
What do you like best about your company?
The people I work with every day and our mission.
What would you most like to see improved at your company?
Work life balance. A lot is expected of us, which is great, but it can get overwhelming sometimes. Also, change is very frequent and leadership has a tendency to "press go" before fully thinking things through.
