Pros

I loved my job in the Design and Construction/ Development function-something new every day with the opportunity to learn and expand responsibilities.

Cons

In trying to turn the company around the changes came fast and furious. Lately they seem to be throwing the baby out with the bath water....as far as I can see there is very little retention of historical knowledge. For the sake of the kids and teachers out in the field I hope you are being supported and listened to by the skeleton crew back at Corporate.

Pros

I loved mentoring, and being that person these children could lean on. Showing them different things, and I just loved the children

Cons

I have worked here for 15+ years. No room to grow!!(District managers)They really don't care about they staff in their district. They only care about if we are bowing down to their feet. Stop engaging with the kids to give hugs and show her all the attention. This place is all about money, no overtime and not the benefits of the kids. This is a very high end company but pay very low. Hire none quailfied and no experienced people to be with these babies etc... no correct training. No materials or time, but yet they expect us complete all these task. Dont hold people accountable for their actions, they try and get rid of the best hard workers that have more dedication to this job. (To keep from OT, 1hr 15 min lunches)

Pros

The company has a well researched curriculum that gives you a base and guideline to teach by, however there is lots of room for your own enrichments and creativity .

Cons

It is difficult to get a substantial raise. After working there for 7 years and doing quality work new hires with no education background or experience get hired in making equal to or more than me. Most are straight out of high school and this is my career.
