Pros

Mature enough organization to be properly resourced, young enough that experimentation is still allowed. Lots of smart, driven colleagues. Unusual commitment to on the ground work overseas.

Cons

Heavy focus on education IT systems, with the confidence to take long term bets, even if short term indicators raise questions. If you're a true believe in tech in ed, this is not a con, but if it's not your thing, it might feel constraining.

Pros

Great pay and benefits for a role in the non-profit space. Really kind and well-intentioned people, especially at the mid and junior levels.

Cons

If you're not in a senior-level position, your ability to shape and inform decisions, as well as your growth and learning as a professional, will be limited. High levels of gatekeeping, silos, unclear goals, and lack of accountability put mid- and junior-level staff in a very difficult position.
