I want to briefly second (third?, nth?) this. I’m potentially pretty excited about more EA oriented career advice/coaching/mentoring from an EA perspective, but I think I’d feel kind of embarrassed about referring someone to an organisation called “Probably Good”.
When I saw the title of this post I thought it was evaluating whether or not another career guidance organisation would be good or not, and concluding yes. I was pretty surprised to discover this was not the case. That confusion might be kind of funny to some people, I guess, but I don’t think it bodes terribly well. In general I think jokey org names are a pretty bad idea.
Just writing a quick comment here that I’ve changed the title of this post to be less confusing.
The previous title: “A New Career Guidance Organization: Probably Good” does sound like this is an evaluation. Didn’t want to it seem like this comment didn’t make sense to people who haven’t seen the previous post title.
