Pros

Amongst NPO's, High Jump is a great, feel good organization. Program is wonderful. Students are spectacular. Best place to gain teaching experience. Overall, trustees are caring.

Cons

Incompetent leadership with poor management skills. Trustees can be demanding. Time allocation for projects is not communicated poorly and unrealistic.

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.
