Pros

I have no pros to report

Cons

I was a candidate for a lead teacher at the Farmingdale location. I interviewed virtually and then was invited to come in for an observation interview for 3 hours, at the end of that observation I was asked to come in for another 3 hour observation, which I did 2 days later. at the end of that observation I was told to come in the next day from 8:30 to 5:30pm. I had gotten my fingerprinting done in the meantime. I came in the next day and had to sign the visitors log again, meaning I was not getting paid for this time either. I asked to speak to the director and was told she was at lunch and to stay until 6:30pm with no pay until the director "spoke" to me. At this point I realized that i was being taken advantaged of and promptly left at lunch. i might add that during this time I kept being called by someone elses name. it appeared no one was in charge. kids were great, management was horrible and disorganized. They never even called my references. I feel strongly they were milking me for free work. I would not send my kid here.

Pros

Flexibility with hours. Good food coming from the kitchen.

Cons

Management. Overly sensitive families. Un trained employees. VERY HIGH turn over. Pay is not worth the amount of pressure put on teachers.
