Pros

Fairly good time off and decent benefits

Cons

Work life balance is horrid to the point where you often cannot take time off, leadership practices churn and burn style tactics for their employees, leadership runs the organization with a venture capitalist mentality laying off employees each quarter to pad numbers.

Pros

You do very meaningful work and the staff truly care about you and what you are doing.

Cons

School placements can be quite far from where you live, and the days are long (7:30 am - 5 pm). Often is exhausting, but you stay for the kids.
