Pros

The people who work at Teaching Lab are incredibly dedicated, honest, and hardworking. I love the flexibility of remote work and feel supported in my role. The compensation and benefits are generous.

Cons

I think you can find cons within any workplace and I don't think Teaching Lab is perfect. I think the rate of growth needs more operational structure and support.

HYPOCRISY AT ITS FINEST

Pros

Monthly technology reimbursement and home office reimbursement

Cons

Where do I even start? Teaching Lab is a joke. It is not an anti-racist organization (hah!) but rather a fast sinking ship that's exploiting employees under the guise of being "radically responsive" to partners. Teaching Lab calls themselves a "start-up" to justify the absolute lack of structure and organization. They love to fix what's not broken and will waste each year reiterating on processes that never worked. There is a reason why the staff survey results get worse year after year. There is a reason why staff of color leave at disturbing rates, oftentimes without another job lined up. The CEO is a racist white woman who will not take any accountability for the white supremacy culture at the organization that she continually perpetuates through "urgent" requests. If everything is urgent, nothing actually is! The COO & CPO are also equally evil and will give incessant lip service about "equity" while doing whatever they want, whenever they want. The entire executive team lack leadership skills and are only focusing on getting more contracts ($$$) to fill their pockets. You will be micromanaged. You will be gaslit. You will be given massive amounts of work with unreasonable deadlines. You will not be adequately supported. You will constantly struggle to keep your head above water. You will have to fight for your salary and any increases because they will tell you that "you're getting paid well." If you decide to join the organization, don't say we didn't warn you. Don't buy into the "head, heart, and habits" bs because that's not worth having your soul crushed every day.

Thank you for acknowledging the ways we strive to provide the resources necessary for our team members to work in pursuit of educational equity and for sharing your perspective. At Teaching Lab, we value and strive to incorporate the perspectives and insights of our community members into the work we do in service of our commitments to racial justice and organizational development. We know that the work of learning how to live these commitments is never ending and yet we take seriously our responsibility to always be moving forward on our journey toward racial justice and liberation. At Teaching Lab, the next phase of this journey takes the shape of an organization-wide, community-driven racial justice initiative led by our People & Culture team. You can learn more about the principles and commitments to racial justice that guide our internal and external work here on our Teaching Lab website: https://www.teachinglab.org/equitycommitment. As a non-profit focused on fundamentally shifting the paradigm of professional learning for educational equity, we strive to expand our work to serve our mission and to ensure that more communities have access to the high quality professional development that their teachers, students and families need and deserve. As we expand our work in service of our mission, it is important to note a misunderstanding in your post: Teaching Lab’s Executive Team members do not receive additional compensation based on additional contracts - we do not operate on a commission basis.
