Pros

The charter school industry has a lot of money to spend on IT.

Cons

Insane hours. Expect 10 hour days minimum (9am to 7pm). Taking days off is discouraged. Maybe you can take a half day off here and there if you make it up on the weekend. Absolutely no taking time off during the summer. I had to cancel a summer vacation because of the intensity over the summer. The summer is the only time their clients (public schools) can do IT projects. Charter Tech underpays compared to the industry. You can make 25% more anywhere else and work less. Massive turnover only makes the job harder. As soon as you get someone trained they are out the door.

Pros

Most roles are fully remote or close to it Salaries are decent but not exceptional All of the technical staff are extremely talented and eager to share their knowledge.

Cons

They are currently hemorrhaging clients and laying employees off with zero notice. Management is pushing people to use terrible AI tools, in the hopes they can train those AI models so they can lay off even more people. All of the clients are impoverished schools using decades old infrastructure. You will get really good at fixing ancient equipment nobody uses any more, and fall behind on learning tech that is actually relevant. Employees were routinely promised bonuses and promotions then never given then. Awful and abusive managers

We’re sorry to hear that your experience with CTS did not reflect the culture and environment we strive to create. We wish you could’ve come to the management team to discuss more about the AI tools and our goals, as it is not to reduce our workforce but rather increase productivity so our team can focus on more complex tasks and projects. As our industry evolves, we continue to adopt new technologies and tools that help us better support our clients and strengthen our operations. Our focus remains on empowering our teams, improving efficiency, and creating growth opportunities… not replacing the people who make CTS successful. CTS also invested in new training tools for the upskilling of the technical team. It would have been great to have you benefiting from all this. One of the HR projects for 2026 is in Career Development (learning, sharing, mentoring) and we are continuously improving our Performance Review Process and its connection with Compensation Adjustments. Additionally, we are working to provide greater clarity around Career Paths so employees can better understand growth opportunities within the organization. Changing subjects to our clients, our client base is getting bigger, and we are also doing more projects for them. We are forecasting a 30% growth in 2026, compared to last year. CTS is also diversifying the client base by adding commercial customers to the list of companies we work with. We are especially proud of the work we do with schools and nonprofit organizations. Our mission is to help educators, staff, and students avoid disruptions caused by technology challenges and ensure our clients have the systems and support they need to thrive. The 2026 projects speak for themselves: faster Internet connection, new staff and student devices, smart classroom technologies, among other investments. Not only we are getting more clients, as we are growing our team. CTS has not conducted layoffs, but occasional staffing changes based on low performance, like any company. We remain optimistic about the future of CTS and the continued growth of our education, nonprofit, and commercial divisions. And to conclude, you are welcome to join us for coffee in 2031. :-)
