Impossible situations and administration makes it impossible

Business Outlook

Pros

Co-workers who are driven to support the clients even when the administration make it so much harder. The majority of people in the school are amazing.

Cons

The administration who are never in the school are making decisions that are impacting the lives of the children in negative ways. If you are one of the people who are truly there for the students a work life balance is nearly impossible because you never know if the job is being done well when you are not there.

Pros

I feel like this place was started with good intentions

Cons

There are too many to list really; there is no humanity in this company, which is not great for a place that is supporting at risk kids.

Pros

Caring organization. Senior Leadership listens and cares about all staff in the organization. Very transparent in their communications. New executive team - lots of positive changes. This is the best place I have ever worked.

Cons

Salary and benefits may not be what they are in the "for profit" world but the work that we do and the difference we make are what matters. Pay is a bit less but not significant. Other than that nothing.
