Pros

- About 90% of your fellow teachers are really great and easy to work with. - About 90% of the students are good kids who are not too difficult - If you want to advance within the company, you can do so very quickly.

Cons

- Sexual harassment both by fellow teachers and students towards employees is excused and essentially allowed. I experienced this at my location and also heard about MANY instances from employees at other locations. - Students can basically treat teachers however they want because their parents are paying an exorbitant amount of money for them to be there. See above. - Nanci Bell is averse to change in any way, even positive change. Most of the materials are from the 80's and extremely outdated. She also seems to not care at all about her employees' well-being, putting money before everything else. - LMB charges INSANE amounts per hour for their services. I personally believe the Seeing Stars program changes lives, and charging the amount they do gatekeeps this education from LOTS of kids who really need it. Morally, I cannot agree with this. - For the crazy amount they charge their clients, Clinicians and other employees don't see much of it. We dealt with a LOT of students who, while good kids, had SEVERE behavior issues, and most of us had no training at all in this regard. We were NOT paid adequately for all the complex issues we were asked to deal with on a daily basis. - I was only part-time for disability reasons, and even then I could barely function outside of work because I was SO exhausted. You barely have a break in your day except for your 1hr lunch, which I found was cut short a lot due to students arriving early and needing adult supervision. - The reason you can advance so quickly within the company is that the turnover rate is very high, and for good reason. See the above cons.

Thank you for sharing your experience with Lindamood-Bell. We regret that our core philosophy was not clear during your employment. We strive to provide a positive work environment, treating all individuals respectfully, offering sensitivity, and valuing each other. While we appreciate your perspective, several of the descriptions do not align with our values and policies. For example, it is Lindamood-Bell's policy to prohibit harassment of employees, and every report of perceived harassment is fully investigated, and corrective action is taken when appropriate. If you feel our Non-Harassment policy was not followed, or if you would like to provide additional feedback about your employment, please contact the Human Resources Department at support.hr@lindamoodbell.com or (805) 546-5693.

Pros

-Great students -Programs genuinely help those who need it -Friendly co-workers

Cons

-Job ad and both interviews said this was tutoring. My coworkers and I didn’t learn this is remedial work until our first day at the office, and I wouldn’t have taken this job if so -No time off in summer -My center’s materials (books, workbooks) are literally falling apart -Work expected when off the clock (set up) -Poverty wages for 9 intense hours at the office is honestly unacceptable -I’m not allowed to let my kids take bathroom breaks or breaks longer than a minute. Rules generally feel draconian -I feel like a business casual dress code isn’t really needed when you’re working with mostly kids. There’s no reason dress can’t be more causal and it just feels like corporate trying to micromanage you

Thank you for your review. Several descriptions conflict with Lindamood-Bell company policies and protocols. For example, it is our company policy to comply with all regulations concerning employee breaks. To that end, we have practices in place to report and compensate for occasional unavoidable missed breaks, and it is against company policy to work off the clock. Further, our Career site and Hiring materials describe Lindamood-Bell as an "internationally recognized leader in the remediation of learning difficulties." While we appreciate your candor in this forum, we suggest you reach out to your supervisor or the Human Resources Department at support.hr@lindamoodbell.com or (800) 233-1819 to discuss your specific concerns.

Pros

Good teaching experience if you want to learn more about teaching students with differential needs.

Cons

- They will not pay you for the "extra hats" that you wear as an employee with the company - They will overwork you to the point of burnout and still expect you to dedicate yourself to the company in ways you are not expected to do anywhere else - They do not take student conduct seriously - Will completely ignore your needs as a person let alone as an employee - The turnover rate is so high. 6 people have quit in the last 3 weeks alone

Thank you for reviewing Lindamood-Bell. We are glad to hear that you value the experience you have gained in your role. Unfortunately, several descriptions conflict with our practices. For example, our policy is to prioritize the safety of employees and students in all situations. Instruction is paused in cases of physical misconduct, and incidents are immediately escalated to the corporate management team and the Human Resources department. We take safety very seriously, and while we appreciate your candor in this forum, we urge you to discuss your concerns with your supervisor or Human Resources.
