Pros

The young, international coworkers made this job more interesting and most lower level employees are passionate about the population served.

Cons

The position I was hired for was something I was very excited about. However, the director soon put me into many unsafe situations that made me very uncomfortable. The young people I was working with were often forced to wait or be uncomfortable or in danger because the staff was stretched so thin.

Pros

The management team is supportive, communicative, and genuinely cares about employee well-being. Feedback is handled professionally, and it’s clear that management values both performance and people. Overall, it’s a positive place to work.

Cons

Pay is not as high as some other schools because it is a non-profit organization.
