Pros

Okay benefits, kids are enjoyable, coteachers can be your friend or foe depending on how the gossip goes, pay is average, working conditions are clean, most everyone is friendly.

Cons

Rules outweigh freedom to choose how to run a classroom, lack of communication (although strived for by supervisors) leads to more confusion when trying to work as a team with coworkers, ethical guidelines are overruled and discontinued by HR dept. that you will never meet in person or be able to contact, biases within workplace are ever-present and unaddressed, and the expectation to do online work for kids only increases among the several other expectations for an employee inside AND outside the workplace, monthly online trainings are required.

Over worked

Pros

There is a great group of teachers at the center that will support you in any way they can.

Cons

The staff is kept late (30-45 min.) over assigned shift daily and is constantly shifting classrooms in order to fulfil ratio requirements due to large enrollment numbers and not enough teachers.
