Vantaggi
Reading Partners is powered by some of the most passionate, kind people I have ever met -- from the AmeriCorps members in schools to the leadership team. The organization is not afraid to tackle big challenges and does so with a thoughtful, solutions-oriented approach. The work is difficult, but it is very rare to feel like you are without a support system. The culture is incredibly team-based and is highly cooperative. If you are looking to work for an organization making a meaningful impact on an individual, community, and national level, Reading Partners is the place to be.
Svantaggi
Reading Partners is very focused on growth and scale, and this type of fast-paced change is not for everyone. Sometimes the org-wide decisions being made aren't contextualized or communicated well to all regions or employees. Also, almost all employees are expected to wear many hats in their roles, which can be frustrating for some people (but exciting / good exposure for others). While Reading Partners does a phenomenal job recruiting great talent, they could do a better job with staff retention and diversity.
