Solid Employment. Great Organization.

Pros

EHTP has a great mission and does very good work in the community. Pay and benefits are competitive with similar organizations in the area, and there is a good amount of paid time off which makes work-life balance very good. Professional development opportunities are very good too.

Cons

As a nonprofit, salaries may be a bit lower than they would be for similar positions with a more "corporate" organization. Health/vision/medical benefits are only available to full time staff.

Overall Great Place To Work

Pros

The org is dedicated to becoming an anti-racist organization that works alongside the community. The people who work here are honest, open, and very supportive. I feel like I am treated with respect, and that there is space for me to advocate for myself. It's fun! There are a number of opportunities for professional development.

Cons

While the org is working towards anti-racist practices we aren't there yet, and so this is both a pro and an area of growth.

Good way to start your career in an educational nonprofit

Pros

Annual salary increases Most colleagues are reliable and easy to get along with Anti-Racism professional development Scholars and families are the heart of the work Work from home opportunities for central staff

Cons

Annual salary increases vary tremendously in scale per year Long hours No room for promotions for certain roles, even after years of dedication to organization Workload is too much for the salary Quantity over quality is always pushed - the organization wants to grow at a pace that is faster than what it can handle, at the cost of its staff's well-being due to overload of work Work style and culture clashes between the charter schools and OST/Central teams No paid maternity leave

Good intention, good mission overshadowed by chaos

Pros

It's an okay entry into the nonprofit education sector if you're interested in that. The mission and overall objectives appear solid and worth being a part of. Most colleagues were great to work with. Anti-racism commitment and anti-racism coalition was a great opportunity to keep discussions around antiracism alive between scheduled PD days.

Cons

Management structure is chaotic and doesn't live up to its own goals of transparency. Some decisions seem to be made ad hoc without concern for long-term impact. Organizational structuring at home office is also unclear. Managers encourage everyone to speak up, but most times if your thoughts/opinions don't align with theirs they'll dismiss your voice outright. Benefits were so-so. General wellbeing of staff could've been better to keep up morale and overall office culture.

Pros

Staff members are very motivated, kind, and hard working. There are opportunities for promotions within your field if you stick around for long enough. The organization has a lot of money and will give you access to the materials that you need if requested.

Cons

Very long hours for similar compensation that is offered to those who do the same jobs for less hours in other institutions. Work comes home with you and consumes most of your time off. Favoritism is also very evident here and if you are not on the fortunate end of it, you and everyone else in the organization will be made known of it.
