Pros

- Amazing people with a true love for students - A great mixture of educators and business folk - Handles the balance of a for-profit company in the non-profit sector very well - Has no tolerance for anything illegal or misleading - Top leadership is experienced and respected in the field of education

Cons

- They've lost their innovative edge over the years - There is a tendency to apply solutions without fully understanding the problems - In an attempt to be agile, there's often not enough time provided to fully try out and implement new ideas - Experience and institutional knowledge is no longer valued or respected - Yearly (sometimes more often) reorganizations prevent consistency in programing and progress - When ending employment due to a reorg, there was zero appreciation given to me for my accomplishments during more than a decade of service

Pros

Great collaboration with highly professional colleagues who truly care about teaching and education. Work remotely.

Cons

Insufficient training for the many responsibilities of the position. Insufficient follow-up from the upper administration on said responsibilities. Workload increased to levels that made completion of said workload difficult (with putting in extra hours without added compensation) to basically impossible. Difficult to change roles (at least, in my position). Many additional hours away from the classroom, which greatly disrupted educational continuity.
