Pros

Great people who genuinely care about your growth and are vested in your success. A wonderful culture built on teamwork and honest feedback. A very mission driven startup that goes above and beyond to do the right thing for each of its students. Easily the best place I've ever worked!

Cons

Like any startup, it's very fast paced with lots of ambiguity and fires to put out. Longer hours for not great pay.

Pros

I joined Springboard almost a year ago and it's the best job I've ever had. Managers get extensive training on how to approach professional development and I've never felt so supported or motivated to grow. The people I work with are intellectually curious, thoughtful, and kind. I always forget I've never even been to the office due to COVID because of how lively and inclusive the culture is even over Zoom and Slack Work life balance is wonderful and we even close one Friday a month for a wellness day and encourage everyone to unplug and step away. I have really appreciated this!

Cons

My biggest challenge comes when the company wants the US and Bangalore teams to act as one. In reality, we have very different functions, communication styles, and work on polar opposite hours. At some point, leadership will need to accept that these two offices should work autonomously and independently from one another. It's too hard to collaborate when someone in the group was majorly inconvenienced by doing a 7am or 9pm meeting.
