Pros

Benefits are decent. There is a good group of folks that are supportive and fun to work with.

Cons

The organization does not have a stable leadership team and has an enormous impact on the staff and the kids' education. Consultants were hired to try to do damage control with the charter school. Favoritism plays a huge part in staffing. But most concerning is the poor financial decisions and the lack of budget planning which affects staff and the kids. Toxic behavior is ignored.

Pros

Some of my coworkers were nice.

Cons

Organizational leadership is incompetent and hired due to nepotism. The pay is very low, staff are not appreciated. The work is very challenging (working with students and families) and the leadership makes the work completely intolerable due to their incompetence and disdain for their staff. Over the years Christopher House hired many good people but always treats good employees terribly until they can no longer tolerate the poor treatment and leave.
