Pros

Great co-workers. Really fun, kind, hardworking people. It's nice working for a mission-driven company knowing that so much of what you do everyday is ultimately for the good of children in our centers. Sometimes folks are allowed to be promoted or moved into other roles within the company, which is nice.

Cons

Constant organizational change. Unexpected, frequent lay-offs that make no sense. Literally the worst benefits of any company I've ever worked at (despite how frequently they boast of great benefits and an "engaged" staff). For example, there are only 10 vacation days and they force you to take 5 of them during Christmas week. No paid maternity leave.

Pros

The kids are super sweet and fun

Cons

Management lies about what they are prepared to offer you. They hire you on, offering a promotion as soon as you meet certain metrics, then once you've met them, they refuse to promote. I was hired to be a director, was told to just complete my state mandated hours on site as a teacher, then I would be promoted. I finished my house rain two months and six months later had not received any promotion. They will cut employees hours to train new employees.
