      Pros

      Getting to work with children, supporting public education and the vacation time... spring break and 2 weeks off for Christmas.

      Cons

      Every workplace has some sort of dysfunction but HISD tops the chart. The communications team I worked for was not proactive or strategic. Their management style is outdated and they seem to think that intimidation is the only way to get staff members to listen. This resulted in more than 5 team members leaving.

      Pros

      -Love working with the students in HISD -Most coworkers are amazing and passionate about providing access to post-secondary options to all students

      Cons

      -Instruction from higher up in HISD is often inconsistent, and they deliver expectations and news VERY last minute -There's a lot of disorganization due to being understaffed as everyone is being stretched thin -Isn't room to grow pay-wise in this role; I have to change roles in order to get a salary increase.
