Interested as well. What do you mean by “research”?

Gotcha, thanks. So on the data science side of things. I know some of the market research teams there so was wondering if it happened to be in the consumer insights world.

- Work is more niche
- Company culture is rough
- MBB / tech exit

Why would you make people waste so much time on your stupid assessments before asking expected salary range?!

I’m a SPED Resource/Inclusion Teacher which I really love. I really like working with the Gen Ed teachers maybe because my background is Gen Ed.

What happened to SPED working with Gen Ed? Maybe I’m old school, but this seems so wrong to me. Thoughts?
