Best job I've ever had, I just hope it doesn't change too much after all the aquisitions

What do you like best about the leadership team?
Best place to work due to work life balance and allowances and management encourage us to grow
Transparency, honesty, and leading by example. Following through on commitments. Building community and creating a space where we can be who we are, both at work and at home. Understanding that employee well-being impacts the company's success.
Experts in their field that can clearly communicate business goals, strategy, vision, and product. The team is very accessible and open to comment.
Review from Sales Dept
I don't like the leadership structure. It's very much a "top-down" approach where leaders make decisions without adequately involving those closest to the work and to the customers. Leadership is disconnected from the "rank and file" and isn't seeking input from people who are leaving.
I've only met one of them and they were great. I don't even know who the others are. Except for the CEO and I've never seen him in any meetings or events.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?
They need a leadership team, then focus on business and not so much on pro-nouns and social acceptance as we all accept each other jus fine without being forced to sit through another lgbtq+ lecture.
What is the best part about your compensation package?
Wellness, telephone and phone allowance
a well structured package, other perks like Sodexo coupon, wellness reimbursement
Review from Engineering Dept
Unlimited PTO in addition to four paid Recharge weeks a year -- two company-wide plus two individual ones the employee chooses. Freedom to take care of myself and my personal priorities whenever and however I need to makes me so much better at my job and so much happier at work.
Recharge weeks, and unlimited PTO
Review from HR Dept
home office, flexibility, and great meaningful tech product to sell.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
I have done extensive research into pay for positions like mine, and the total comp is below the bottom of the pay range. I can go elsewhere and make 20 to 40 percent more.
We were bought out by another company. The CEO decided going into the second winter of COVID would be a good time to cut our benefits. We lost our stock options, but I'm sure the C Suite made quite a bit of money from the sale. It took a year to correct a gender pay difference. Pay me my worth
I was recruited with them saying healthcare premiums were fully paid. 3 weeks after my start date they announce we would have to pay 20%,.the were cutting mental health benefits, and switching providers
Ease in understanding and applying for benefits.
More transparency into advancement opportunities

What are some of the best things about your team?
They are super supportive when it comes to seek advise or learn from them. Each one is actually willing to work towards companies goal and contribute.
Review from Engineering Dept
We trust each other's work ethic, knowledge, and professionalism. Any one of us can jump in to help on anything, and we can be sure that it's in good hands. There is a camaraderie and a respect for each other's differences that feels safe and encouraging. No pettiness, no drama, lots of laughs.
Everyone has strengths and weaknesses, but people are willing to always lend a hand to improve both themselves and others.
Review from Sales Dept
Nice people who care about doing a good job.
It's small and everyone contributes in their own way. We have fun.
Review from Engineering Dept
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Better coaching on how to be successful, demanding more calls, or contacts etc doesn't help me move through customer objections
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
Unlimited PTO and allowances given by company
Pluralsight's tagline -- Where Your Best Work Meets Your Best Self -- is a true representation of the culture. I am blown away by how much focus is on relationships and caring for ourselves and one another. People feel so genuinely proud to be part of Pluralsight that we want to do out very best.
The product has huge benefits to every person that uses it - knowledge, self empowerment, and upskilling. These benefits know no socio-economic bounds.
Review from Sales Dept
A really strong work/life balance that isn't just a for-show policy. We are encouraged to take time off if we need it.
Review from Engineering Dept
I like everyone in my department and most of the "lower ranks". I like that I'm encouraged to learn more in different areas.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Management needs to engage an outside provider to interview employees anonymously. People have a lot of input but it's not being heard. Employees don't trust the employee engagement survey to be anonymous, so many don't feel comfortable completing it.
Work towards efficiency and effectiveness but not for long hours just for the sake of it.
What did you like most about the interview process?
best thing about the interview was aptitude test
very interactive and wholesome conversation
Review from Engineering Dept
From the first time I spoke to the recruiter until I was offered the job was just a couple of weeks. In that time, I completed the online assessment and went through two rounds of interviews. Even though it was quick, all my questions were answered and learned so much about the role and Pluralsight.
A good variety of people to meet with and gain insight into the company and culture.
Review from Sales Dept
I felt very comfortable the whole time
Review from Engineering Dept
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Don't try to stuff a candidate into a role. Really listen to what the candidate enjoys doing and is good at. If it's a fit with your need, great. If it's not, either adjust the position to fit the candidate, or don't hire the person.
The kept pushing out the offer date over and over. Give a firm date.
What makes you most happy at work?
Flexibility and people around me, office facilities are great.
Review from Engineering Dept
Everyone wants to help and no one is an island.

Working through problems with my team
Review from Engineering Dept
My team and my boss. I love that I can work from home if I want to
Learning I get from the material available.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Employees who are closest to the work and to the customers have important feedback. Listen to them and act on the feedback.
We’re sequestered in our homes with no foreseeable plans to return to the office. Leaders have stopped doing wellness checks and Town Halls have been canceled, turn over is at an all time high, and leaders are caught in internal politics that have become toxic
Review from Product Dept
What do you like best about your company?
I love the amount of autonomy my company gives employees
Review from Engineering Dept
My coworkers

Lack of future planning and over meeting
