Many teams work remotely, but the Austin based team has the option to work in-office.

Desventajas

Proximity Learning is a perfect example of a company that started with seemingly noble goals of providing desperately needed supplemental digital instruction and “putting students first.” Unfortunately, the last 2 years have proven that management is focused solely on profit and growth and does not seem to be concerned with how little they pay their own staff nor the sheer volume of work placed on them. As a result, teachers and management leads (the very people who brought this company from just an idea to reality) are starting to leave in droves while the company continues to sign contracts with school systems without making sure that they actually have enough teachers to perform the instruction. Of all these talented individuals who felt compelled enough to leave the company, they did so with the heart-breaking realization that Proximity could be a great company. At one point, they all believed that. The past 2 years have proven that the company did not believe in them. To quote the CEO “What got us here won’t get us where we want to be." And PLI will get there…no matter how many talented people they trash in the process.

Ventajas

Good hourly pay ($40/hr but little hours so keep that in mind)

Desventajas

Bad communication during onboarding process. Got hired initially for the fall then got told the district paused their contract and they wouldn't be starting anytime soon. Later got confirmation we would start for the Spring semester. It wasn't after I sent multiple emails about my concern about not haring any solid information about a starting day that they informed me I would be able to begin late February. Apparently due to not many positions being open. Our contract was for until towards the end of the school year but then got notified that our site intended to end our services late April a week in advance of our last day.
