      Pros

      Passionate colleagues who are very, very knowledgeable about education and teaching

      Cons

      There's really no central support other than a bare-bones, overworked administrative staff. There's no guidance or systems in place to make things run efficiently, smoothly, or even comparable to our competitors.
