Pros

Every team member I've met from the Managing Director to the staff at reception has been kind, collaborative, down-to-earth and very talented. Everyone has a deep passion for teaching/helping students. General Assembly is a strong supporter of diversity and is an incredibly fun and rewarding place to work.

Cons

Compensation is on the lower end of the range.

Pros

I don't really have any.

Cons

The students are never at fault - even if you have a student who yells at you daily. Instead, they will tell you to talk to them, even after you tell your manager you feel really uncomfortable. Both myself and my Instructional Associate spent more of our time backing up and defending and getting our support staff to believe us than getting support. It was exhausting. The culture of GA is awful. There was a point in time on the general slack channel where there were divisive and very shocking comments being made about social causes that should not be had in a slack conversation. It was really uncomfortable and hostile place to feel comfortable having conversations.
