Pros

Not only are the kids fun to work with but the team of teachers, TA’s and managers are so kind and supportive. I’ve never felt so welcomed into a job before. The atmosphere is always positive and I feel incredibly supported in my roll at FOSS.

Cons

The only downside I can think of is that sometimes I have a hard time telling the kids “no”. I always want the kids to be happy but when they are being unsafe, I have to dim my lightbulb. Besides that there are no cons to this job in my opinion.

Pros

Gives you space to really develop yourself skills if this is something you want to do.

Cons

It has become corporate and money driven. The bottom line is becoming more important than families. Things feel chaotic and corporate doesn’t communicate well. Management is constantly over worked and underplayed. There is no way to accomplish all of the new mandates corporate has implemented in the last few years
