Pros

NMSI pays very well! The benefits package is amazing and they really tried hard to embody their core value of "People are Platinum". They made some intentional efforts in the DEI space. Felt cared for and heard.

Cons

There are way too many layers which caused a really big disconnect between what was happening on the ground versus the decisions being made at the top. There were lots of silos and cross-functional collaboration was not a strength of the organization. At times, it felt like we were being opportunistic vs. truly staying true to our mission - essentially we were going where the money was flowing....even if we couldn't serve well in that area.

Pros

This Used to be a Really Well Run Non-Profit Organization

Cons

I worked for NMSI for close to 8 years; I traveled giving lectures, trainings and seminars to students and teachers. After a Covid related restructuring they hired me as a Coach. After a year of working as a Coach, via lame pathetic email, I, along with many other others, were laid off. They stated the reason for the lay offs were a lack of demand, lose of contracts with major DOE's in NYC and others. Yet, one month later, on the NMSI website there was a job posting for Coaches; very shady non-profit, high employee turnover and no loyalty to long time employees-stay away.
