Pros

Great experience for someone starting out in their career as an education consultant/manager. Teaches you everything about running a business.

Cons

Corporate does not care about independently owned franchises, they are more interested in opening more centers. Limited resources for training, most guidance on operation comes from other centers or from your own trial and error. The curriculum does not teach kids how to code, it only teaches them how to become a pro at copy/pasting. The hours are horrendous (60+hours), you literally will have no life and there are no benefits.

Good place, terrible curriculum

Pros

Relatively laid back working environment unless it gets crowded, flexible hours, working with children can be rewarding.

Cons

The current curriculum really feels more like following directions than coding. The curriculum provides what is needed to complete current game, only very specific concepts and bits of code are ever fully explained and little emphasis is placed on understanding how code interacts with the game as a whole. The curriculum is also too advanced for the minimum age a child has to be to enroll, often we have to spend time teaching children basic math and typing skills before starting to code.
