We’re toast

What is your role and how much do you make? I’ll start. I am a Senior SSA and I make $74,000 pre-tax.

I commend everyone who came on camera and spoke out today. Especially the SSA who summed it up. We can’t afford to live. They are tone deaf and have a few million bucks in bonuses as the rest of us do the work to bring in revenue. While it will never... — read more

As a shareholder, I received my proxy voting materials. There are line items to approve the executive compensation as well as a reverse stock split of either 10 for 1 or 40 for 1. I did not vote in the way the board recommended

Thank you to the person that slacked this today! You are brave and we are watching closely c suite to s e if there is any retaliation. Good morning, and happy bonus day! @plalljie has spoken extensively about emphasizing transparency within... — read more 

All we see and hear about is the negative press and the sh-t show of leadership in the company! I am genuinely curious if ANYONE has even a sliver of hope for the future of this company and its employees?

I haven't seen anyone’s thoughts on the new creative filming studio spaces. Is there just no talk about it anywhere else because it isn't well known or is it just that no one cares?

Boston Globe (Hilary Burns) and Kirk Carapezza (WGBH) are looking for people who worked at edX who can tell them what happened.

SSAs are not getting any salary increase this year. There will be a "retention bonus" for SSAs which is 40% of their expected bonus spread out over 4 quarters. So, like $200 maybe per quarter if you're lucky. No scheduled career pathing/promotions... — read more

2U is shutting down HQ on or before April 15th, 2024 and moving to a tiny office in Virginia. No one will be allowed back into the building. Most things are being moved into storage or liquidated.

So, after being laid off, I finally landed a role. But I am worried about the background check. When I started, I started with Trilogy and at some point (don't remember the exact date) my paychecks started to say 2U. In addition, when I look back... — read more

This is where to look for the delisting warning from NASDAQ. Should be out soon. Share price is 37 cents, nowhere close to the $1 threshold. https://www.sec.gov/edgar/browse/?CIK=1459417&owner=exclude

Is this just a coincidence in timing, or did Dobbs get laid off and trying to hide that fact?

Ok this is not going to be popular, but if you are still with 2U, STOP Complaining! You are still getting a pay check and benefits. Instead of biting the hand that feeds you, Work to help make this company make it or get out. PERIOD.

Anyone who thinks they can get way with saying they worked for edX, and didn't work for edX before the acquisition--actually building edX--is doing the same deception that 2U is known for its fraud with USC. 2U destroyed edX by trying to make a... — read more
