Pros

Programs designed to help meet academic, workforce development, and social service needs of urban school district students are client-centered. Therefore, if you have a passion for creating positive meaningful experiences for students, you will be fulfilled.

Cons

Challenges related to continuous fundraising and talent development create an imbalance and misalignment of competent professionals vs. management needs and program services. While a client-centered approach is certainly necessary for a successful and meaningful program, lack of support for infrastructure development is a cancer to overall organizational management if not actively and competently managed.

CISGA: Great experience to use as a stepping stone

Pros

Work-life balance is encouraged. Flexible schedule. Office environment between staff is welcoming. Great location and commute; easily accessible via public transportation and MARTA. The work is rewarding when you get to work with students and community partners.

Cons

Low salary for level of education. No potential for growth. Communication from upper management to staff could use some work to ensure everyone is on the same page. Little to no training received; new hire training seemed very rushed. Sometimes every department operates in their own bubble, collaboration between departments should be encouraged.
