East Harlem Tutorial Program reviews about "staff"

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

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.

-Overworked...50-65 hour work week depending on when it's slow (50 hours) or busy (65-70 hours) -Underpaid with very few (if any) perks, i.e. no work from home days, most holidays are days you are required to work -Very little control over your own role, i.e your role can change without your say -Lack of consistency, EXTREMELY high staff turn over rate -Inexperienced leaders, leads to unprofessionalism, pettiness, and immaturity from upper management/school leaders. -Wants to be a data driven network but doesn't take into consideration the input of the data experts -Lack of transparency between school to school and between leaders and their staff -Lack of structure/vision leads to unavoidable late nights and weekend work. -Racial equity is very important for lower level staff but doesn't appear to be prioritized to the senior leaders/school leaders

This is a place for passionate people. If you are someone who is looking for a 9:00-5:00 or someone who works best with 100% clearly outlined responsibilities, this may not be the place for you.

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.
