very bad experience - Lecturer College Track Employee Review

I love the fact that every time I walk into work there is a smilling colleague or student waiting to greet me. Everyone who works at College Track is passionate about their job and the students are brilliant.

I don't have much bad to say except that as a College Track Alumni maybe we should get the students better food for after school programming.

I could not have asked for a better mission or more wonderful colleagues doing their best amidst constant transitions.

College Track, what a heartbreak about what the reality should have been. Nonprofit workers, listen: you cannot ever believe enough in a mission without also being able to believe in the integrity, accountability, and transparency of its leadership. It just won’t work. CT has the high turnover and pressure to “drink the kool-aid” about results that you often see in the tech sector, but the reality is that there is high turnover, constant program reconfiguration, and total comfort with the waste and disruption of entire teams leaving. CT has normalized these bizarre practices because it is a nonprofit co-founded and largely financed by a billionaire. They do not care about retaining their talent or perpetuating harmful practices within the culture. See also the reviews at XQ Institute for an eerily similar description of the bullying, dysfunction, and erratic decision-making. It comes straight from the top.
