Pros

Kids were great, you definitely make an impact on them. Coworkers are nice and passionate.

Cons

Everything else. Pay and treat you like slaves, HR has no idea what they're doing EVER. It takes weeks to get a response for basic questions. Curriculum team never has good ideas in response to important questions. The content is usually sub-par and not proofread. Often we need to re-implement over and over because of stupid mistakes they make. And even after I stopped working there, they continue to make my life a living hell. As soon as you're no longer an employee, they treat you like you don't exist. Shut down your email immediately without notice (I had important documents in there sent to me that I can't access??), don't respond to your emails, don't tell you about your students' scores or grades which they said they would as soon as they were obtained. I'm now working at a MUCH better education nonprofit and Saga refuses to verify my employment for my background check even though they have been in contact with the hiring team. WHY? You guys are so lazy or incompetent you can't complete a simple task?
