What's the Work-Life Balance Like at Ellevation Education?

Ellevation Education Employee Perspectives

It starts at the top. Our co-founders have really thoughtful leadership about work-life balance and are sensitive about what it means to be your true self at work.

Marion Kennedy Amos, President of Ellevation

The flexibility to go get my kids or tend to a family matter without having to take time off makes me a more productive, engaged and better leader overall. Like the educators we work with, we are multifaceted as people and professionals, and speaking for myself, Ellevation’s culture promotes both in such a way that allows me to bring my best self to work.

I’ve been able to experience a flexible remote work environment, which has allowed me to have healthier boundaries and avoid burnout.
