Pros

Lots of freedom and ability to set my own schedule. Great benefits and travel perks. Amazing people. Our mission is top notch. What we do is so meaningful. Doing it with friendly coworkers makes it even better.

Cons

The pay could be better. The company can be a little scattered at times. Clearer communications and better planning would be much appreciated.

Pros

Coming from covid, there were lots of hard times for the culture and the team but we came out of it smaller and stronger. I am grateful we survived, and things have really changed. Post-pandemic, Rustic is full of happy, excited, motivated employees who are learning from the mistakes of the past.

Cons

Pay is a low and hasn't kept pace with inflation.

Thank you so much for sharing this feedback. We agree, flexibility is a must and that's certainly not for everyone! We're working on ways to improve Program Leaders' quality of life, such as increased time off, and really appreciate your insight. Thank you for your contribution to our programs.

Pros

People actually running programs are the only good part of this company.

Cons

Keeping it short, they pay low wages to local people and do not let women speak freely. At the end of the day, they do not care about the impact they are having as much as how much money they are making. They know about their projects not working as advertised but yet, they continue to do the same thing.

Dear Former Employee, I am surprised and disappointed to read your review. Would you be willing to contact me or our HR team directly about which program you are describing? As an impact and humanitarian organization, this is not the feedback we ever get from local partners, from the schools on the program, or from our Community Impact Team. I would greatly appreciate an opportunity to learn more about what it was you felt and saw on program and as an individual. Our goal is to improve 1% every day and having more specific information will help. Sincerely, Chris Stakich

Pros

- travel - co-workers, the other people who work for this company are amazing and so passionate - working with students - perks, they really take care of you and you get to work remote - they give you a lot of autonomy to do what you believe is best

Cons

- it can be a lot of personal responsibility - sometimes working remote and traveling can be lonely - it is a sales job, so there is always the rejection that come along with that - not the highest pay, but there are other perks
