Pros

The idea of the mission is exciting and heartwarming. There are so many people to network with and really great people to meet. Because turnover is so high, you get to learn a lot of skills in a fast paced environment. Really good spring board if you want to network and find a better place that fits your passion. Working with students is always a high point. Insurance was pretty good and affordable. Lots of vacation and flexibility with many managers.

Cons

Management and higher level is secretive, and old fashioned. No room for movement since turnover is high and positions and responsibilities get absorbed and forced onto others.

Pros

Wonderful mission and great colleagues!

Cons

Leadership is underskilled and overcompensated. There is a culture of leadership bullying staff - or elevating staff that are underperforming to gain support. Lack of opportunity to grow and very old school way of thinking - no flex time, telecommuting, volunteer time off - comp time. There is lack of quality control across the board.
