Any one that has been moved over to LearningMate feel good about the situation? To be fair some of you look really…happy. I know it’s early days and maybe the happiness is purely relief but does leaving make you feel like a weight is lifted off your... — read more 

Can anyone provide more details on this quote about edX's lending partners issuing high-interest loans? This got the for-profit colleges in trouble. Has anyone at edX complained about this? Who are these lenders? Is Discover one? Sallie Mae? ... — read more 

The nightmarish experiences so many have been forced to endure, by way of an "H.R." department performing as little more than 2u leadership's henchmen. Wasn't there some sort of Hippocratic Oath taken when entering into the {Human Resources} field?? — read more 

Ok, this is getting out of hand. Not just at 2U, but across technology companies. CEOs make up to 600 times the salary of ICs. CP made 17 MILLION dollars last year. What was your salary? What was the rest of the C-suite salaries and bonuses? Could... — read more

And it follows Chip’s usual pattern of going from one terrible name to another🤦‍♂️: 2tor -> 2U Greatness -> Glorious to Greatness Chip -> Christopher? (Is this still a thing?)

15 minutes for an all company call… 15 minutes of talking sh-t… 15 minutes of lies… 15 minutes is all we get? This man really has never given a fu-k.

I love how Chip has been so busy at the Global Forum to address the remaining of his employees about what the fu-k is happening. While I understand it’s necessary to meet with partners to keep the business going, what about the rest of us? He can’t... — read more 

I think it’s more than appropriate after so many rounds of layoffs for 2u/EdX employees to ask if the CEO of a company in transition should be leading a second company. What is his time commitment there? How is this acceptable? Where can we ask this... — read more 

There will be a board meeting this coming Wednesday. Hopefully, for Chip to step down. There are going to be more lay offs.

Has anyone ever wondered if one of the reasons they fired people was because of a disability? I know 3 ICs who were fired who had filed for disability at some point, myself included.

Flee! Quickly and Swiftly!

This is the worst possible time to be laid off. Thanks, 2U.

Anybody hear that 2U was being sold?

People with over a decade at 2U were let go while somebody who joined this year is still here. So much for experience and loyalty meaning something.

Those of us left need to speak up in today’s meeting. Yesterday was stressful and as evidenced by the threads here, we have a lot of questions. How many were actually let go? What specific factors were considered when deciding who to let go? ... — read more

It’s that there will be more than one wave of layoffs. Anyone hear anything about the next wave and who is at risk? I doubt anything meaningful or honest will come out of the SE meeting tomorrow.

I work as an instructional specialist for 2U/EDX and work suddenly went missing today, and I also see multiple threads about layoffs today. Coincidence?
