Enjoyed the organization, my job, my coworkers and clients, but the industry being under fire is tough

Pros

Meaningful work Great, smart, fun coworkers Lots of cross-collaboration opportunities throughout the company

Cons

The industry being under fire is hard to swallow. Being forced to constantly downsize, or fearing the next government/political attack made it difficult for employees not to become overwhelmed. If the industry was in a better place, I think more would agree it's a great company and one that truly does right by its students and changes lives.
