Pros

Organization is committed to its mission, employees are fun, and the work is challenging. Good job that will allow you to work on a variety of projects, both inside and outside of your functional role. Also, all staff members get to work with students on a daily basis.

Cons

Pains of a growing organization (too fast, too soon), hard to find work/life balance, and salary is not always competitive with the marketplace

Pros

- Competitive compensation - Excellent organizational leadership, passion, and culture - Programs really make a difference in the students' lives

Cons

Any new site comes with some growing pains and so we are still figuring some things out as we go. Could use a little more direction or "best practices" from other sites or leadership. But again, these things come with any new sites!
