Pros

the organization was filled with amazing employees who did truly awesome work with each other and with the young people we served. I learned so much working there.

Cons

So much money spent on very unneccessary fancy headquarters, events, so on. Many mixed messages (and lies...) from leadership to employees, definitely not always working with the young people we were serving in mind.

Pros

TFP has a great, important mission and they get that the underlying problem for so many of our world's problems is education--the fact that we're not equipping young people with the skills they need to thrive in this day and age. This is a dynamic, energetic workplace where you'll find lots of opportunities to work on new things, lead projects, learn, and grow.

Cons

It's still a bit of a startup, and the flip side of their ambitions mission is that they sometimes overcommit or are overambitious. So you have to be ready for a fast-paced, fast-moving, constantly adapting plan.
