Pros

The organization allows you to work with some of the best students from all around Chicago and places them in an environment that provides every resource for each of them to succeed academically and personally. Both teachers and teacher assistants are extremely caring and are wonderful people.

Cons

Campus directors rotate very frequently. This is a problem because it takes a while for campus directors to understand how the program fully works. As a result, organizational issues manifested more than enough to notice.

Pros

High Jump has an amazing mission that it's easy to get behind. When you keep your focus on the program, it's a huge motivating factor for getting the job done. The program team works tirelessly to benefit the students and deeply care about helping them to succeed. The board also cares deeply about the mission.

Cons

There is a toxicity to the company culture that comes from the management and permeates all aspects of the organization. Lower level employees are often thrown under the bus to save face and leave the board in the dark. All efforts done to reflect and improve the culture were surface level in my time at the organization.
