Pros

I applied for the position online only to call and ask if all schools go through the website and it does. For me the website is very weird to figure out. but i go to the interview and then i will take it from there. I didn't realize the interviews location was not the city you will be working in.

Cons

They linked the mission one website with source for teachers website. That makes things really annoying and confusing.

Fulfilling work, but not because of MissionOne.

Pros

*Flexibility on choosing work location. *Fulfilling work.

Cons

*No formal training. (You learn dos and don'ts via word of mouth) *Too many employees assigned to one supervisor—very little contact or actual supervision given to individual employees. *No information given about child's abilities prior to assignment. (I understand there are legal reasons, but maybe a week before school meet up is in order.) *Supervisors do not know (or know very little) individual students being cared for by hired staff. *Little understanding about taking days off (when this is a position designed to have substitutes readily available.) *Little urgency to find substitutes if one does not fill the slot. *20 hours of outside training required each year to continue working for MisisonOne (besides online modules, nothing is provided or suggested. You're pretty much on your own.) *No performance-based raises offered. *Employees feel like warm bodies rather than valued professionals.

Pros

Company is experiencing fast-paced growth with a very promising future. It added 60+ new clients in one year and that pace looks like it will continue. A lot of people are able to move up to new roles and even across departments. Management believes in investing in employee growth and creating opportunities for corporate employees to work long-term.

Cons

Some growing pains that are the product of such rapid growth.
