Pros
Promethean was once a great place to work, driven by a clear mission, strong culture, and people who genuinely cared about education. Collaboration and flexibility made it a company employees were proud to represent. That changed as poor leadership, declining products, and investor-focused decisions eroded everything that made it special.
The people and flexibility were the only positives left. My colleagues were talented and dedicated, but even they couldn’t offset the instability and leadership failures that became routine.
Kontras
The company has endured several layoffs in just two years, creating constant fear and instability. Employees were repeatedly told the cuts were over, only to see entire teams eliminated without warning. Leadership dismissed feedback from those closest to customers and the market. The once best-in-class product has been reduced to a shell of its former self in pursuit of short-term revenue. Strategy shifts every few months, recognition is nonexistent, and remaining staff are overworked with minimal budget and support.
Executives are disconnected and more concerned with control than progress. A company once defined by innovation and purpose now feels directionless and depleted.
