Too ambitious, performative, unsupportive environment - Educator Spark-Y Employee Review

Friendly and supportive staff, fun workspace.

Pay could be a bit better, often projects are fairly disorganized.

highly competent coworkers on the education team

You will likely end up doing a job you aren't trained to do under the guise of "entrepreneurship" and learning by throwing oneself to the sharks and seeing if you can "sink or swim." -Some projects were very interesting while others were downright dangerous and highly lacked cultural awareness, sensitivity, and competence. - Hires mostly white, college education young adults even though they seek to work in underserved communities & not once while I worked there did we ever talk about DEI or the problematic aspects of white saviorism in non profits. - If you turn down additional work that is on top of already taxing work, you will likely be gaslit, targeted, refused raises and advancements, and treated as if you are a problem. - highly toxic, it will likely take time to recover your mental health and nervous system due to all the confusion and gaslighting from working here.
