Pluspunten

The location. And the office space was nice and clean. That's about it.

Minpunten

No idea where to begin. The whole company is built on a fundamentally flawed concept which is the common core standards. They are always borderline bankrupt, probably because their executives all make obscenely high salaries to do very little while they continue to lay off people who actually do the work.It is the worst good ol' boys network I've ever been around in more than 25 years in the workplace - if you're not "one of them," they will let you know through their body language and make it as uncomfortable for you as possible. That's what happened t me. They are all former teachers who think they are smarter than everyone else, and they let me know from day one through their actions that I was not on the same plane as them and they didn't think I belonged with them. Somehow I lasted a year and a half. When they decided to let me go, my direct supervisor did not even have the guts to face me. She did not show up for the meeting. . she had her supervisor do her dirty work. Office politics at its worst. I was fired for "not being one of them," plain and simple. They've had a couple of massive layoffs since I left, so that should tell you all you need to know about their financial well-being. If you're not "one of them," you WILL get treated like dirt. Consider yourself warned.

Pluspunten

-Bold vision to transform the face of STEM: NMSI advances STEM education by diversifying the teacher workforce, building the capacity of STEM teachers and school systems, and expanding access for more students to excel in STEM learning and see themselves in STEM careers -- especially students from underrepresented groups. NMSI has a strong research department with long-term data showing that their students -- across all demographic groups -- consistently outpace national averages in advanced STEM enrollment, AP exams, persistence through college, and earning STEM degrees. -Strong 5-yr strategic plan: NMSI has a well thought-out strategic plan that keeps staff rowing together to build educator and school system capacity, leverage high-quality technology solutions, and elevate supports for Black, Latino, and Indigenous communities. -Led and staffed by hard working and committed people: During the pandemic, NMSI did better than many nonprofits and even for-profits. But eventually strategic shifts and a restructure were necessary, which caused hard feelings for some people in Sept 2023. But the organization emerged stronger and more effective. It is clear why the restructure was necessary, and the new leadership team has been sincere in their work to make NMSI an irresistible and equitable organization where all staff feel empowered and safe to do their best work.

Minpunten

Significant change at the organization is difficult for some. And NMSI has taken on some of society's most inextricable problems, which is not a good fit for all people.
