Pros

They were very understanding about their staff's personal issues and worked with them but that's about it

Cons

Was hired for a different position, had no training whatsoever and different responsibilities that were not discussed during interview or orientation. I felt more like they didn't want those responsibilities and gave them to me to do. It was very stressful and the lack of communication and gossip among the office and teachers made it difficult to just even be there at times. Some parents were definitely very rude off the bat. The amount of parents that yelled at me in the first two weeks was more than I've ever been yelled at by a parent. The office and the teachers definitely have cliques and it shows, which made it hard to coteach or even ask for anything. They obviously had favorites too who supervisors had more leniency towards. All in all, it was a hectic time for me while working here. I had never been so stressed and anxious to go to work...and i've worked retail for four years before that.

Pros

Children and Families Co-workers Health insurance, sick pay, etc.

Cons

Too many children in each classroom, children are not able to receive the attention they need. Very stressful for teachers trying to manage a classroom with 20 1-2yrs olds. Low pay and stressful job leads to high teacher turn-over, which increases work on the other teachers having to work with subs who are not familiar with the children or program, and training new teachers. Corporate office ignores complaints from teachers
