Pros
Benefits and salary are good considering Not-for-Profit status You get to contribute to educational advancement -- if you're in the right place and not stifled
Cons
If you're not connected to someone or their friend, you'll go nowhere, get marginalized and end up looking for work. (Some of the people work for each other on the weekends. In one case, we had best friends and maids of honor for each other in a direct report situation Some people do no work. Some people come in before 10, leave before 4 I had a boss who went shopping with her assistant every Friday from 11-2 at the mall and actually came back carrying the full Target and Kohls bags. That same boss used to hold up a sign in conference calls that said, "How do I get fired and get a package?" No focus on execution. Ask about the English test and what they paid. Leaders are clueless. Innovation is impossible. Every idea is found to have a problem and not pursued. Incompetent managers. One poor fellow was heading an adult learning project, but couldn't speak the English language. It's best days, unfortunately, are behind it.
