Pros

-Overall people are mission driven and effective -Most teams encourage healthy work life balance -You will be rewarded for hard work in most cases -Eab has a good reputation in the market and is respected by higher ed market -Leadership has an open door policy

Cons

-Lack of diversity at executive leadership level - comes off as a “boys’ club” -Pay is not competitive when you zoom out to competitors. They also justify the lower pay with their benefits, but does see less of a differentiator now -Pay increases from promotions are small as well -401k matching is terrible and almost negligible

Pros

Had a history of supporting employee needs (e.g. hybrid)

Cons

- has become obsessed with in-office culture and "being present" (i.e., super limited full remote roles now), would not be surprised if the exec team submits a RTO mandate soon - compensation is under what you should receive, regardless of tenure or level. The amount of work far outpaces your salary. -because of the point above, burnout and a culture of irritability is omnipresent. - do NOT take the senior promotion, it just results in more work (you do multiple smaller projects in addition to your current workload and now lead trainings) and a small pay increase that does not even match inflation. - expectation that less senior staff have to interpret everything, big lack of clarity between need-to-have feedback and preference-edit feedback - instead of annual raises that match inflation, you get to spend full days quarterly with the team talking about topics that have nothing to do with your day-to-day - Management has become very clique-y, good luck moving into management if you're not already a part of the clique (or fully remote) - Unpaid overtime is expected but you will get shamed for not doing everything during the workday. - We currently work with the military and with the police as recruitment strategists so ICE will probably be next
