Pros

Management appreciates the importance of investing in technological systems, professional development and general room to grow. Large enough to have the resources to do interesting things. Small enough that each employee has a direct impact. When I was considering my job offer, I was put off by some of the negative reviews on here. You’ll notice that five negative reviews were posted only a few days apart. They read like the same person wrote all of them by creating multiple Glassdoor accounts. None of the complaints match my experience with the EFBA or the President, Gabrielle, at all.

Cons

As a small-medium sized nonprofit, everyone must take on multiple roles. Lack of written documentation. No one is getting rich working here. While a commitment to representing the entire French speaking world, no current office employees or volunteers that represent our Caribbean and African teachers and families.

Pros

Leaders foster a culture where employees truly feel valued. Staff is directly involved in decisions. Option to work from home. Unique perspectives, experiences and contributions are encouraged and celebrated.

Cons

Working for a nonprofit is rewarding, but sometimes grants don't get approved and a project may have to be put on pause.

Pros

I worked with EFBA for 8 years. It started humbly as a parents' association and it is now a large French Language teaching institution known internationally and publishing learning material over the internet. Even though growth doesn't happen without rough patches and tumbles, EFBA never ceased to be a working place where being a human being with a heart anchored in the left side of your chest is never forgotten. It was very fulfilling to work with EFBA team for eight years. I will not be willing to work for anyone else, except for myself, after these years.

Cons

Ideal for the great Bay Area urban centers. But difficult for families in rural or remote areas to have access to EFBA teaching centers.
