Pros

Some Pros: - Really committed people. - We all fight any battle possible to see students succeed. - Teaching is very rewarding. - You help change people's life. Sometimes this is enough to stay positive and ignore any other negative thing in the job. - GA really cares for student diversity. They go above and beyond to create a safe space for everyone.

Cons

Some Cons: - Upper management lacks strategies for "what if" scenarios for their decisions. - Lead Instructors have very little work-life balance. - Very rudimentary logistical tools for a company that has been in the bootcamp business for a while now. (Google sheets all over the place) - Not a clear career path for Lead Instructors.
