Pros

More support than other more traditional schools in terms of administration-teacher observations, feedback, etc., higher salary, lots of opportunity for growth within the organization

Cons

Brutal working hours, high turnover, high expectations for staff means you are always under scrutiny, if you (your students) aren't performing expect to be observed regularly because they will track your progress, sometimes it is hard to say no to certain "opportunities"

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.
