Pros

None that can be mentioned

Cons

The leadership team of the Saratoga campus is completely disorganized, hardly visible. The organization needs to improve in their conduct and treatment of employees. The directors always expects everyone to figure things out without any formal training, is not very approachable and does not have manners, people facing skills, and social ethics in talking to staff, no management skills to help employees grow. There has been no positive praise for work performance. There is no room for growth into a full time role, for part time staff members. FDAs are expected to deal with parent questions on their own. The whole academy lacks management, structure. Future parents/ employees do not apply to this Saratoga academy, where the environment is very toxic, where your work will not be appreciated. Program wise-There is no detailed training. There needs to be management training for leadership staff to be clear in expectations, technology programs, and operational issues/parent questions.

Wonderful Students and Staff

Pros

Excellent curriculum that challenges students and promotes deep mathematical thinking. Incredible students and families—working with them was a highlight of the job. Supportive and passionate instructional coaches who genuinely care about teacher development and student success. Flexibility to teach remotely, which is great for those with other full-time jobs or commitments.

Cons

Extremely limited hours. It’s difficult to get more than ~10 hours/week, and instructors often compete for teaching slots. This is strictly a side gig, not a full-time or even reliable part-time job. No raises. In nearly three years of consistently strong performance, I never received a single pay increase. This is the only hourly job I've worked where my final salary was the same as my starting salary, and this includes jobs at places like Walmart and Jimmy Johns where I was employed as a teenager. Lack of personalized support at exit. When I requested a letter of recommendation, I was told I couldn’t receive it from the coach I worked closely with, but instead from an unfamiliar HR staff member. This felt impersonal and dismissive of my commitment and contributions to the company.
