Great mission but lack of leadership - Avis employé Employé (anonyme) Participate Learning

The people are amazing and everyone works hard to support an amazing mission.

Lots of hours worked in the summer, but that's what we sign up for and not a con

Good benefits, good PTO, remote options

TLDR; Poor leadership, discrimination, micromanagers, favoritism, no diversity within the board or C-Suite. It’s just a glorified staffing agency with delusional leadership. Absolutely do not recommend working here if you are LGBTQ+; they have no DEI initiatives and it shows. There’s a lot of favoritism and nepotism and if you bring up concerns then you’ll be pushed out. The whole “we are a B Corp” thing is such a facade. There are wage discrepancies with lots of over-worked and under-paid staff. The C-Suite repeatedly says that Participate Learning should be non-partisan. However, they will bend backwards to appease ultra conservatives and will never stand up for their values. They also spent a bunch of money for an all staff retreat to go to Orlando Florida in 2024 and then told the company not to post about it on social media or let anyone know. Take that as you will. I wish you all the best on your job search and if you’re reading this then I know that you deserve better than Participate Learning.
