Pros
The mission -- to improve STEM education for 3-8 -- is worthy. The mostly women-run organization is inspirational for women scientists seeking non-bench careers.
Cons
Company culture has taken a big hit due to the bottom line being slashed by the pandemic. Hourly employees are kept in the dark about their annual academic assignments until the last minute and have to be OK with uncertainty. Important details about how the company is run and how this will affect the instructors, who are the primary content deliverers, are kept close to the vest, which creates a rumor mill. Currently a revolving door for employees who are seeking jobs in more stable non-profits or in industry.
