Pros

The breaks that come along with the school year.

Cons

This is a terrible place to work. The company only cares about money, not the students or employees. The pay is awful for the amount of work required, and you cannot live off the salary. There’s no room for growth, no support, and the environment is unsafe because they never have enough staff.

Response from The Menta Education Group Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. While we’re glad you valued the school-year schedule and breaks, we are truly sorry to hear the concerns you raised. We want to address them directly: Compensation: We know pay is an important issue, and we regularly review salary structures to remain competitive while balancing resources across our schools. Support & Growth: We recognize the importance of professional development and career pathways. Over the past year, we’ve expanded training and created new leadership opportunities, and we will continue to build on this. Staffing & Safety: Student and staff safety are priorities. Recruiting and retaining strong team members remains a challenge in education nationwide, but we are actively hiring and adjusting practices to ensure safe, supportive environments. We understand the frustrations you’ve shared and will continue working toward improvements in these areas. Your feedback helps guide those efforts, and we appreciate you bringing it forward.

Pros

-The main pro is the fulfillment you from working with this diverse and challenging group of children. - The amount of locations give you more variety in where you choose to work

Cons

-at my location the life skills children are taught in a open bay style class rooms. it is often very noisy and hard to get the students to concentrate. Often times one student being overwhelmed has a domino effect on the other students because of the constant noise -I don't feel respected as a professional and often time feel that I am suffering a punishment of others who worked here in the past. we are not allowed breaks or to leave the building for lunch. when I asked for clarity on the matter i was told that it is because staff in the past would leave for break and not return. I don't think its fair to punish everyone for the decisions of a few people. - Administration makes decisions without considering how it affects the staff that is left to execute said decisions. I don't feel respected as a professional and I often times don't feel heard by my admin team until something goes wrong. Our students haven't had a gym class all year due to a scheduling conflict. We communicated this in September, it is March and our students still don't have a gym class.
