Pros

Excellent experience in the field of education, highly innovative teams, very fast paced, exciting place to work and to make change in the world

Cons

At times, too fast paced and decision-making systems unclear or opaque. Strong culture is lacking on the general teams--but is dependent on the specific teams you work with.
