Pros

Getting to work alongside talented people who care about its mission of placing people into tech jobs. 100% remote and autonomy in how you can create your schedule.

Cons

Lack of transparency from leadership about its business decisions. Layoffs were commonplace during my time there - no stability.

Pros

I was formerly a student, went on to be a TA and eventually became an instructional associate. I felt incredibly supported, lots of communication and lots of trying to help me reach my goals. Such a fun job with lots of growth

Cons

Leaving due to a restructure of education/going more into video learning, bigger classes and less instructor to student learning

Pros

General Assembly is a great place to work where you can be proud of the work and impact you have on the org and clients. If you get out of your workaholic mode, you can take advantage of the flexible PTO and the culture of understanding where you are expected to put forth 100% but also take time for yourself and your family. No one abuses that and there is trust in folks getting their work done and supporting one another.

Cons

If you are ok with staying in one role for a long time, this is your spot. I think that due to the pandemic and the economy, there is limited mobility. However, you can try to work or use skills on other teams to diversify your professional portfolio if possible. But raises and bonuses fall short.
