Currently, the ability to work from home. I hope this option always stays available.

There are many, many different cultures represented there, when you look around you, there are people from Jamaica, Mexico, phillipines, Lebanon, Ukraine, Egypt, I could go on and on, and it's awesome because everyone is the same. You learn so much.
Review from Operations Dept
The supervisors are very thorough and understanding.
Mission driven
I love the ways that Scholastic strives to always improve. Every efficiency and win for programs and teams across the employees is also a win for the customer and even more so for the children who benefit from us doing better.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Structure for promotions, recognition and reflection for work done, leadership roles having the ability to reward their staff.
Shut down / stop elevating a Miranda Priestly wannabes standard. Discipline the employees literally sleeping at their desks.
Treat your employees like you believe they can do the job you hired them for. Stop micro-managing. Provide us with the tools to do our jobs. When you ask us what customers are saying, don't say that's not true or educators don't think like that. How do you know? You're not talking to them.
Review from Sales Dept
Treat the employees with respect and not like children.
