Vantaggi

Kind, competent and committed people work here. Work/life balance is solid. Unlike one of the previous posts by an angry person, the ED and managers are passionate about the mission and they work hard at maintaining a team approach and making sure people have the opportunity to share their opinions. In my experience, the ED has helped and inspired me to become a better leader and manager. Plus, the benefits are great (especially for a nonprofit!), with a 6% 401(k) contribution for all FT employees. I left the org because I had another opportunity that I couldn’t pass up. If that opportunity had not arisen, I would still be working there.

Svantaggi

Fast growth came with some growing pains. Management style varies from team to team, some are stronger than others.

Vantaggi

-The most powerful education K-12 brand on social media. Tremendous reach. -Impact of the content created is seen EVERY day with educators, students, and parents. -Passionate people. Tons of selfless and talented folks making a difference in education. -Top notch facilities and TONS of perks. -Overall has sufficient resources to accomplish additional initiatives. I worked with top-notch consultants and learned a ton from them. -Inspiring board members and executive leadership -They recognize, cultivate talent, and challenge you to grow. -Recognizable brand name (Both George Lucas Edu Fdn + Edutopia) -Great place to be exposed to Web development, video crews, social media, and editorial folks. Great cross-functional team experience (exposed to many different thinkers) -Flexible work-from-home day on Thursdays -Extra professional development for those that take advantage of it (conferences, coaches, courses etc.) -GREAT benefits (best I've had hands down)

Svantaggi

-Location is very isolated (impossible to run errands and/or have a quick meeting with someone) -Has a history of not strategically saying no to many initiatives but I know there's a strategic plan in place to resolve this. -The Web/Media landscape is changing fast and Edutopia is changing with them. They could benefit on being more transparent at times to alleviate any unease with all of these changes.
