Pros

Very nice people all around to work with. Everyone is easy to get along with, there are always chances to snag food and work times are a bit lax.

Cons

No information is eve transferred between departments. Instead of owning a problem finger pointing is prevalent often causing issues to go unresolved. Pay is decent for the area but low overall compared to the work demanded. Revolving door of staff often staying 1-2 years before leaving means there's always new people in roles. An aggressive expansion campaign means you're constantly told the company can't afford this that or the other.

Pros

The organization is one that is so easy to get behind, and that gets behind their people. Our staffing team is one of the best out there.

Cons

Working in the education world is tough, as you’re normally as a rule trying to do more with less.

Pros

Teachers had a positive attitude toward each other and worked as a team. There is extensive training in classroom management at the beginning of the year and clear consequences for students.

Cons

When you interact with HR, you are reminded that you are just a number. They do not treat you as a valuable employee. You are asked to send your questions to emails, and you're not able to get someone on the phone. Their communication is confusing and they are not helpful.
