Pros

Great work atmosphere - all trainers and supervisors really work together to make the center great. Trainers are encouraged to seek extra help and are quickly given all the information they need to help their students excel. Supervisors are openly available and willing to help you in every area. Our center's employees has a strong sense of camaraderie. Families/clients are amazing. Almost all parents who sign their children up for programs have complete faith in LearningRx. They want their kids to succeed and get involved where they can. You get to work one-on-one with students, getting to know them and building a solid rapport for up to six months or more. You really get a sense that you are making a significant difference in someone's life, and that's fantastic. I've had several students in the 3+ years I've been there, and it's amazing watching them grow and transform into mature, capable, smart individuals. Scheduling is extremely flexible and taking time off is no hassle. Trainers receive continuous training throughout their employment.

Cons

Not many opportunities for advancement/promotion. Promotion opportunities that do open up don't always seem to go to the most suitable employees. Hours can be unstable - you are paid for the sessions you complete with students. Also, if there is a shortage of students signing up, getting hours can be difficult. No benefits. Full time employees are eligible for benefits, but there aren't many of those. Cognitive skills trainers are part time. Turnover rate can be high. Getting new trainers in can be difficult.

Pros

Their mission is admirable, the few customers that they do have are great.

Cons

The way the company trains and manages staff makes it difficult for employees to succeed. What they call "training" is not actual training, it’s mostly observing other trainers, with very little hands-on practice or guidance. Instead of giving clear direction, management tends to lead you along without truly helping you learn or improve. They also tend to sell you on a dream during the hiring process, painting the job as one thing, but the reality turns out to be very different. This leaves employees feeling misled and unprepared.Pay isn't great, hours are not the best, and it's not a stable job. On top of that, management often engages in gossip about other employees instead of focusing on building a supportive, professional environment. This creates unnecessary tension and makes it hard to feel secure or respected at work. Feedback tends to be more discouraging than constructive, and there is very little structured support from leadership. If the company invested in real, hands-on training, avoided misleading promises, and encouraged professionalism within management, this could be a much stronger workplace. Until then, those considering a position here should be cautious about the lack of proper training, unprofessional culture, and the gap between what’s promised and what’s delivered.
