Dream Job - Reuse Specialist Turnip Green Creative Reuse Employee Review

- amazing community with similar values (sustainability, artists) - opportunity to work with kids & elementary school students - getting to watch kids get super invested in their artwork is one of the biggest privileges i get to be a part of - working events gets you close to the community and a great way to meet people in nashville

- working with students can be exhausting but that's not surprising - lessons can be up to interpretation, takes a bit to be comfortable in front of the classroom - events can be confusing to figure out where to park, how to set-up, etc.

cool coworkers, access to free and low-cost art supplies, a first look at all donations

hourly pay is not enough to live on, always understaffed with almost no urgency to hire new people, forced to take on more responsibilities with no extra pay, expected to be overworking ourselves all day long while making little progress, job is exhausting and the pay is not worth it, no health insurance, management not very receptive to negative feedback.
