Overall, it was a valuable early-career experience with meaningful work in schools and plenty of opportunities to grow as a leader. You get to support young adults, build relationships, and have a real impact on students.
Cons
The pay is low for the workload and expectations, and the organization has gone through rounds of layoffs and instability that make it hard to feel secure. The demands outweighed the support and resources available.
The idea itself isn't bad. Kids need mentors, Schools need help. The pay for this position is not far from an entry level teacher salary and has good benefits.
Cons
You are the ultimate middle man. Upper management (at the time) was filled with liars who decieved their employees and corps members frequently. Not to mention they were in trouble because the ED and Money team ran nearly half a million dollars over budget.
