Primrose - Teacher Primrose Schools Employee Review

Honestly, my primrose experience has been anything other than pleasant. From management not wanting to step into a classroom to assist or give a bathroom break to not feeling valued as an employee… we get no perks to working for Primrose, the enrollment is equivalent to a mortgage, but what they pay their employees is honestly sad compared to the amount of money each classroom pulls in, hardly enough to cover my bills. And if it wasn’t for having a roommate I wouldn’t be able to afford to live on my own. As if working as a preschool teacher isn’t hard enough already. You spend all day trying to please parents, and taking care of children, for management to continuously put extra stress and pressure on you. You’d think after all the effort you put in to working your hardest to help their company flourish they would reward their hardworking employees with vacation time. You don’t get a built in 2-4 weeks like most jobs, you have to work there at least a year and they only give you a week of paid vacation time. Sick time is unpaid and you don’t have any built in. In a field where it’s inevitable you will eventually catch some kind of bug or virus as you are working with young children. I could go on, and on. If you want to be treated like a valuable employee and be happy with the environment you’re working in find a different childcare center.
