Pros
It was great to be a part of an organisation that is striving for better outcomes, by reducing the barriers of entry into tech, and with a special focus on marginalised groups. It feels as if they truly care about their students and their aspirations for a fruitful career. Staff have been especially satisfied working under Manpreet, Programme Director.
Cons
The leaders are mission-focused, yet it was odd that they chose to sometimes keep their staff in the dark about things happening in the business. This is understandable to an extent, yet the lack of transparency really made some of us feel uneasy and unsure about whether we can trust their decisions. At other times, it felt as though leadership lacked empathy for their team, and did not understand their challenges. Also note this organisation is a small-business so their resources are limited, expect to collate and analyse your data yourself in excel spreadsheets.
