Pros

access to their learning materials, built in fifty cent raises for every level of the curriculum you complete.

Cons

poor pay for skills required, poor hours even for a part time job. poor pay in general, considering usually the max amount of hours you can work a day is 4 and you probably won’t be scheduled often enough to make any meaningful money. the raises are made negligible by the amount of time it takes to go through the curriculum and the low weekly hours.

Pros

The concept of the company is amazing. Seeing the children learn and understand coding is rewarding and the families really show their appreciation.

Cons

Lack of training and direction. I’ve had to consult with other centers to find out how to do Day to day tasks because an SOP doesn’t exist and the training provided is minimal and vague. It’s pretty much the blind leading the blind. You just have to learn from your own mistakes. Oh and the hours are outrageous, working 60+ hours a week/6 days a week. However some locations have owners that are more involved and help with the hours.

Pros

Remote work, company mission and purpose

Cons

They don’t communicate, they don’t care about their employees, they have no leadership, they make you work multiple times with no end in sight to hire, they require three times as much travel as their employment contract, the staff is rude, they never to performance reviews, they overwork you, they have zero goals and company plans to base strategy off of, they hire people to work with you without telling you and then force you to train your boss. Terrible experience. I took the job to cut back on a demanding positions hours and was assured of a 45 hour work week. Then my boss resigned right after being hired and I was forced to run the entire dept for a year by myself with no additional compensation. Wore me out, took me away from my child and caused an insane amount of stress.
