Pros

You get to make a difference in children's lives

Cons

No funding or proper training leads to high levels of burnout and turnover. This is especially bad when considering the very low levels of compensation. You can work until you drop, and still not make enough to live on.

Pros

Rachel is very supportive and that is hard to find in management with a company this big. They give you a childcare discount for children attending any of the company schools. With working for a big corporation like Learning Care, there are teams for everything to support you. Coaching and mentoring younger staff be who they want to be will always be a huge pro of this job. Usually the staff we get are ones who use us as a stepping stone to what they want to do forever, I love getting to know them and helping them get where they want to be.

Cons

Salary is lower than some other local companies. Work life balance is a constant struggle but that’s not just at this company, just in this field in general. Early Childhood education is a hard field to stay in long term making turnover higher than I would ever like it to be at my school.
