Pros

When managements' egos don't get in the way, WCCI's social mission is praiseworthy.

Cons

Over the past year or so, a near 100% turnover in teaching staff, resulting from a lack of support, a lack of training, a lack of well-thought-out lessons -- and worse of all, gaslighting about all of the above. But you will find micromanagement and attempts to prevent instructors from supporting each other.

Pros

Great mission and vision (but there's no followthrough - actually they do the opposite of it) Instructors care about the students genuinely, but are driven to quit or be fired because leadership is toxic and only cares about money and not the students

Cons

- A lot of good talk, but the actions don't match - Diversity mission is only a marketing and sales ploy - Students are admitted and set up for failure for the sake of the company making money by making sure students who won't be successful in the end are kept in the program long enough for them to no longer be eligible for any kind of refund - Top leadership treats employees horribly, gaslights, manipulates, and makes them take responsibility for the horrible leadership decisions - If you care about the students and try to do right by them (as the missions would suggest) leadership will give you problems - either fire you or drive you to quit - the team is a revolving door because turnover is so bad (again because of poor treatment of employees) - Pay is low but you'll be expected to put in extra time and a lot of extra effort to make up for the bad leadership decisions - Decent time off policy, but leadership will make it so hard for you to take it and when you do they'll make you feel guilty for taking care of yourself - Leadership creates this sentiment of "do it for the students" as a way to control employees and take advantage of them - HR doesn't exist and the CEO acts as HR - toxic as hell - Women are held to a higher performance standard than men in the company - Very few (to none) growth opportunities because leadership doesn't care about your growth and just wants you to be a tool to the company and serve it without question or care for your own growth - Leadership will give you the minimum and then try to convince you that they're doing so much more than other companies and employees should feel lucky
