Pros

Those who *actually* do the work are so nice, gracious, community-change minded people.

Cons

Senior Leadership is predatory towards minority communities. They hire folks, specifically BIPOC folks, and then preach DEI but only support themselves and leave anyone working outside of a leadership role in low-paying, poorly supported positions. Stop asking your employees to do the DEI work and do it yourselves. Funny how, through all of the job cuts, SLT is making a ton of money (even some with raises) while those who are doing the actual work got laid-off. Stop giving yourself raises and start taking care of your minority workers.

Pros

You can make trauma bonds with your coworkers!

Cons

FareStart cares more about image, numbers, and getting bodies through their doors more than the lives of their students. They have inequitable hiring and promoting practices. Every employee that works in Programs department is miserable.
