Pros

Hours, relationships with your coworkers.

Cons

Red flag when a company asks you to give them good reviews so they look good! Notice how a lot of good reviews are from “directors” aka the ones asking for reviews. The school has become a baby sitting service all they care about is taking any student they can just to make money. The 3 new Administrators in charge do not care about staff, talk about staff, do not care about safety of staff or students and do not communicate! This school went from a amazing therapeutic day school to not one right after the old director left. So sad to see how families are lied to and how they always have a way of going around things to make it ok to families. So much safely concerns and they don’t even care it’s become a business.
