Pros
IXL and the Edtech space is exploding, it's a great time to be here. Everyone at IXL is passionate about education and promoting education through technology. It's refreshing to be at a company where you can really stand behind the product. People are on the same page about wanting to make a difference in the education space and work together to reach common goals. In my experience, employees are generally happy and excited about the work we're doing. IXL has excellent benefits; 100% paid medical, matching 401k, 3 weeks vacation, company socials, in office massages, happy hours, volunteer days, game room, free drinks, etc.
Kontras
Sometimes the younger employees make immature business decisions; but I think that will get better with ongoing mentorship / management. I also wish the office was located in SF or closer to the city.
