Pros
The overall idea is wonderful and certainly appreciated. It's a great step getting the youth involved in the present work place.
Kontras
Sadly, I have more marks on this program vs positive. I felt completely on my own during my mentorship. No one ever contacted me unless I had a question. Zero appreciation shown during/after mentorship. I never felt as though I was apart of a bigger picture, it almost felt like I was someone's sitter vs. mentor. I expressed all of my concerns and feedback, and never got a follow up from them, yet they did email me asking me to mentor again... I thought it was quite odd given that my concerns were never addressed. I would more than likely not participate again. I was expecting a community, with regular meet ups and discussions. I felt a bit taken advantage of in order to build their program. We got one "thanks" generic email once it was over.
