Pros

Students Co-workers Location Subway Families

Cons

BROOKLYN PROSPECT was once a great place to work. Changes in leadership over the past few years have caused low morale. The people leading the network, specifically who ever is in charge of HR/People do NOT care about staff. The new leader came off as cold and fake with no heart. She has said she cares about people, but I have heard leaders talk about her in fear, and question what she is doing. Change was promised, culture was promised, but all we see is desperation and accountability. Ever since the start of the year, people have been walking around in fear due to PIP's. There is a guy at the network in charge of giving PIPS, and lingers around. AVOID The academic team says they are routed in data, but have no idea what is going on, other than giving asking us to do more and more work.

Pros

Excellent talent acquisition; administration knows how to build a great team of peers. High-quality student interactions. Good pay, which leadership leverages via counter-offers to prevent turnover.

Cons

Leadership prioritizes high-level metrics over daily operational efficiency and employee well-being. Inconsistent management practices and clear issues with favoritism. Administration relies heavily on current corporate/educational buzzwords without implementing substantive systemic solutions.
