Pros
Seeing kids grow and make fantastic progress. The programs are really great. There are many opportunities to move up within the company. Good option for summer employment for teachers and recent college graduates. In most locations you can get full time hours each week, even in a seasonal position.
Cons
Burn out is the biggest issue staff face. Some centers are extremely seasonal, but some centers are busy year round. The experience clinicians (staff that work 1:1 with students) have can vary wildly from one center to the next as well. Corporate executives are disconnected from learning centers. They have changed training so that managers have more development and support; however, they demand too much from center management. You are expected to manage sales, grassroots marketing, professional outreach, manage the center, develop staff, and act as a principal for Lindamood-Bell Academy. In management roles, you are expected to give everything to your job. It's not uncommon for people to work 50+ hours a week, and take work home just to keep up with the work load. The salary doesn't match the expectation.
