Vantaggi

Spark-Y attracts some of the most talented, interesting people you will meet. It has connections to interesting projects.

Svantaggi

It is not a sustainability education nonprofit anymore. Education is not the priority. Management takes on too many projects for the number of staff. If you work here you will be overworked, underpaid, and unsupported. Projects are "managed" by telling staff what the outcomes need to be and letting people sink or swim on their own figuring out how to get there. If you give feedback it will be listened to but not acted on. If you give feedback consistently, management will label you as someone who is not a good culture fit. Management also does not care about DEI work. If you are BIPOC, do not work here.

Vantaggi

highly competent coworkers on the education team

Svantaggi

You will likely end up doing a job you aren't trained to do under the guise of "entrepreneurship" and learning by throwing oneself to the sharks and seeing if you can "sink or swim." -Some projects were very interesting while others were downright dangerous and highly lacked cultural awareness, sensitivity, and competence. - Hires mostly white, college education young adults even though they seek to work in underserved communities & not once while I worked there did we ever talk about DEI or the problematic aspects of white saviorism in non profits. - If you turn down additional work that is on top of already taxing work, you will likely be gaslit, targeted, refused raises and advancements, and treated as if you are a problem. - highly toxic, it will likely take time to recover your mental health and nervous system due to all the confusion and gaslighting from working here.
