Pros

The goal of the company is noble and they have potential if there is a major change in leadership, organization, and culture.

Cons

The company actively and purposefully does not practice what they preach. Communication from the top down is at best non-existent and at worst abusive. There is regular gaslighting from leaders that contributes to a culture of mistrust, fear, and work trauma. Half of the directors are not qualified for or knowledgeable about the work they are charged with and it shows. Turnover across the company is high and there's a good reason for that. The reason the turnover is high is not because of the "high expectations" of the company some reviews here state. Intelligent, talented, ambitious people have left due to the fact that they know their value and refuse to continue be berated and to exist in the horrific environment.

Pros

I appreciate the quality of the published books we provide, which I feel sometimes don't receive enough recognition. These books are not only beneficial for educators but are also visually appealing.

Cons

Workdays can be busy here but with supportive and friendly people around, it could be really fun.

Pros

CRS is an interesting company. You will meet wonderful people who care about making a positive difference in the world.

Cons

However, there are many issues with company. There is a lack of clarity from leadership which will have you bouncing around in various directions ultimately hurting growth. There are zero promotions so be proud of the position you are hired for. Pay is lower due to being a non profit. Do not expect getting a raise. Overall, as you empower students, you (as a staff member) will not feel empowered.
