Dead End!

Pros

Good benefits and time off. Coworkers are great and helpful.

Cons

Terrible department directors. The majority of the directors are micro managers that call meetings after meetings for opinions on how to move forward only to continue with what they want to do. There is a lot of favoritism towards employees and their work load, while other employees are loaded down with work and treated terribly.

Pros

The people at Region 4 are fabulous. My coworkers were passionate, smart, and incredible at their jobs. It was an honor to work with them. The benefits package also is quite good.

Cons

Upper management is awful. Led by Dr. Rodney Watson (Dr. Pam Wells retired several years ago), they’re getting rid of good people and are no longer promoting from within. They’re actively demoting people, actually, but not the ones who deserve it. Their current message to employees is that they’re raising the bar and don’t expect some to meet it. Meanwhile, folks are doing more work with fewer resources, there’s no meaningful remote work policy, and they act like employees should just shut up and be thankful they order fajitas once a quarter. They can insist all they want that it’s just growing pains, but it’s been three years; at this point, it’s just the normal, disappointing state of affairs. And all of this really is a shame because the organization does extremely important work. Kids and teachers deserve the world. But I wouldn’t recommend working here to anyone right now.

Pros

The people here are amazing. There is nothing better than knowing that your boss is on your side.

Cons

Though this is a wonderful place to work, we are all grossly under paid.
