Pros

The mission and purpose of AfroTech is the only thing that could possibly keep somebody here.

Cons

High turnover of employees. Poor Senior Leadership which is reflected in the retention of employees. The political landscape has also made this very difficult company to work at as it has greatly impacted the revenue Blavity once relied on from the public sector.

Pros

Remote work flexibility. Great opportunity to build relationships across different industries and gain exposure to a variety of brands, partners, and business challenges.

Cons

The organization often felt more focused on activity than impact. Success metrics weren’t always tied to meaningful outcomes, making it difficult to measure whether the work was truly solving customer or partner challenges. There was a recurring sense of redundancy, with teams operating on a hamster wheel of activity rather than driving transformational results. The culture could benefit from a longer-term, value-driven approach that prioritizes sustainable impact over short-term transactions.

Pros

None that I can think of

Cons

Low pay, no room for advancement, constant turnover of employees. Ie they fire valuable employees in order to pay contractors with no benefits for lower hours and wages. They constantly hire employees for crazy salaries with benefits use the, to improve the company in some ways but fire the, and start the cycle again. Do not waste your time. Blavity leadership does not care and they don’t value their people. Their contractors are overworked under paid and unsupported. Find yourself a company that values you and gives you a living wage and benefits. This company will fold soon or get audited by the irs and dept. Of labor for their sketchy as f business practices.
