I used to work at an edtech startup that was bought by Chegg. They let us write some code for 2 years, never knew exactly what to do with us (the managers they assigned us clearly had no knowledge of the problem domain) and then basically killed it off. Shortly afterwards, they bought a competitor. It was apparent that the strategy was just "corner the market and buy up all the competition". Making students learn things was never the focus.
