What do you like best about the leadership team?
The leadership team listens to their employees. We have company surveys, and then an all-hands centered around the results and strategies to improve them. I have never worked for a company that has genuinely approached this topic.

What is the best part about your compensation package?
The compensation package may not align with many other tech companies, but other tech companies will not offer you as healthy of a culture and work-life balance that Newsela does.
