Very Hostile Work Environment

Recommend
CEO approval
Business outlook

Pros

With the current leadership, I would not recommend working at the ESC.

Cons

As an experienced educator, I have never worked in a more hostile environment. The new executive director surrounds herself with those who are loyal and not competent. She seeks to divide staff and degrades those who are unwilling to engage in her unethical practices. Many very competent people have left the organization. I fear for the financial future of the organization as she rewards her loyalists without understanding the budget process and grant requirements. I am so sad for the organization.

Great Staff - Poor Leadership

CEO approval
Business outlook

Pros

Resources are enormous and excellent for career growth. Self-driven organization by each employee. Competitive pay for education. Many opportunities for new initiatives.

Cons

ED is knowledgeable but extremely toxic for the organization. Constant change and forgetful with initiatives. High turnover which makes consistency impossible. If you leave you will be talked about to districts.

Horrible Workplace, Unethical Management

Recommend
CEO approval
Business outlook

Pros

Before new executive director took over in 2020 it was a collaborative environment of top educational professionals serving the educational community of South Texas.

Cons

Hostile work environment Unethical business practices' Bullying of employees Non compliance with laws Massive employee turnover Very few employees with more than a few years of tenure Lack of direction and staff still there survive by staying in a silo Worst work environment and leadership I have seen in my entire career A textbook on everything not to do as a leader and organization A high salary offer is not worth the post traumatic stress and career hit you will take belonging to the organization. An organization that existed for 50 years brought down in just few years with terrible management. WARNING - Look elsewhere
