Pros

Some great perks, “raffles” for tickets to sporting events and concerts. Very well resourced so there’s great technology, supplies and materials to do your job well. Facilities are pretty well taken care of-finding space to work privately or collaboratively is easy. Finally, THE YOUTH. This organization provides above and beyond for its participants and students

Cons

Favoritism, Nepitism, and inconsistent accountability within upper management. Speaking out against this will get you isolated FAST. Part-time staff rarely grow within the org. Huge lack of diversity amongst leadership.

Pros

I love the kids. That's why I took the job. I didn't realize how little the pay was, and the hours are awkward, so getting a second job is difficult.

Cons

You are expected to work a lot for so little. I get paid 12k a year, but I write lesson plans, lead classes sometimes over 25 kids, and am constantly stressed. Nothing is organized. Every day the schedule is changing and kids act crazy. When something goes wrong you are often to blame for it. They don't warn you that many months you will not have hours to work, so 12k can quickly be closer to 11k.
