Pros

Nothing in the least, at all.

Cons

The worst professional experience of my life. Oppressive to teachers and students alike. Ended up more in debt than when I started because of the contract basically included a resignation fee.

Pros

TNTP is the most prestigious organization in the country working to ensure that poor and minority students get access to the most effective teachers. This organization is innovative and smart. TNTPers take tremendous pride in their work. They are a collegial group. Even top leadership is open and accessible and generous with their. This is an organization focused on human capital and they practice what they preach!

Cons

TNTP is not for everyone. People work on rigorous time lines and anywhere from a minimum of 50 hours to around 80 hours a week. You also work on multiple projects at a time and if you thought you were good in your previous role ... you will get to TNTP and know just how much better you can and need to get! TNTP is a place where people work hard and are continually pushed to get better.

Pros

The people you get to work with are amazing. The TNTP name attracts the most talented and passionate people and I truly appreciate my colleagues. The 100% remote work setting is a plus for me.

Cons

The leadership team is in a tailspin and the organization has lost focus. Colleagues send out their resignation emails on a weekly basis (it's a big firm, there are a lot of people, but this has been a recent change). The executive team makes decisions in a complete vacuum and spits out "position statements" that have no strategy or action attached to them. Many of my colleagues say they don't know what their job is anymore. Oh, and recent changes to the goal-setting and bonus structure will essentially guarantee that merit increases and bonuses are a thing of the past - beware when they offer it as part of their "total compensation package."
