Pros

Very rewarding work and CEO is an incredible human being. Pay isn't super competitive, but then again it is a non profit. Benefits are phenominal.

Cons

Lots of meetings can make it hard to get your work done at times, which affects work/life balance. As a company though, they do put thought into work/life balance and have taken/are taking steps to improve.

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!
