Pros

- There are many great people who work here and the students are a lot of fun to work with.

Cons

- Management doesn't have much respect for staff. They overwork staff and cause a super high burnout rate. They also don't communicate well with staff. - They keep taking new students even though they are at an all time low for staff/student ratio. This is just causing more stress on staff. - The management doesn't know how to appropriately manage high behavior students to keep staff and other students safe. - There are very high behavior students.

Pros

Working with the students everyday

Cons

Management is terrible. Unless you have an important title your voice is not heard at all and your opinions and ideas are usually dismissed. There is poor communication between staff and supervisors and you usually don’t find out information until after the fact. Management is more focused on reputation of company than their employees.
