Pros

The children and coworkers. Working with the children is uplifting and nice(when your not out of ratio with too many by yourself). My coworkers are great. We bond over struggles and stresses of being a brightside employee.

Cons

Management sucks. Does not care about teacers at all. Everytime you turn around theres a new team they just fired the whole regional staff that was only there for 8 months. They give you days off them take them back saying its a mistake and parents are complaining. Hours are long, pay is the worst and I overheard our director talking to someone from corporate and they reffered to us as " a dime a dozen" recently. Please please run fast and far. Ive worked here a little over a year and read the bad reviews but thought I could handle it. NO NO NO please dont make the same mistake. Dont get stuck!!!

Pros

My time there was neutral. I enjoyed myself alot there and I met a lot of kind good teachers and staff. I also met some not so good ones. I think that’s at any job. I worked there from 2011-2016.

Cons

There were some unprofessional teachers and staff there. At times we didn’t have the adequate coverage for shifts and breaks. No sort of compensation for the parents coming to pick up their children late.
