Pros

This organization has many opportunities to individually contribute to student learning thru volunteering and teacher and campus support.

Cons

Way too many management layers. So many resources have been thrown at making life better for the adults that are employed. The student' s needs have been forgotten.

Pros

-Love working with the students in HISD -Most coworkers are amazing and passionate about providing access to post-secondary options to all students

Cons

-Instruction from higher up in HISD is often inconsistent, and they deliver expectations and news VERY last minute -There's a lot of disorganization due to being understaffed as everyone is being stretched thin -Isn't room to grow pay-wise in this role; I have to change roles in order to get a salary increase.
