Pros

The direct impact I had on my teams and their students, helping them feel supported, and positively encouraging them to grow.

Cons

Leadership is a mess right now with funding cuts and low AmeriCorps member (direct report) recruitment. National CEO is lousy when his emails aren’t polished by others, very fake. Need to increase pay and return to hybrid/remote positions where it makes sense.
