Pros

Upper management is fantastic, they make decisions that are the right thing to do for children and families first, and then they evaluate the financial impact.

Cons

Still working to integrate the highest level of technology into the work place.

Pros

It really depends on who is running your center. But at the Davis Square one it is one of the best. I have seen lots of management come through and what we have now is the best I've ever seen. We get toys, supplies, furniture, etc. when it's needed we don't wait to have it ordered. The center is run smoothly and the kids are happy. The families can see the learning going on and that's a plus. Teachers are often noticed when they go beyond. And just because the director will have staff ice cream parties, get candy, buy breakfast, and the list goes on

Cons

The classrooms are always full to the max children they can have. It would be nice to have an extra set of hands. Supplies need to be stocked and staff need to use the bathroom etc.

Pros

Pay and benefits is better than most other places, but I'd rather make less and have a piece of mind and knowledge of self worth.

Cons

Run far and run fast! They do not listen to staff or PARENT concerns about the classroom. The turnover at this place will boggle the mind. There are days you won't get a lunch break. Management doesn't come to see if you're in ratio EVER so you're often stuck with 3-4 kids over your ratio. They are constantly understaffed so you are always moving from classroom to classroom even if you're the Lead Teacher. Management often ignores your calls even if they are available. They DO NOT give you bathroom breaks and when it's pointed out you get reprimanded for not being "flexible". You can not call out even in emergencies and if you have a scheduled day off don't be surprised if they call you into work anyway. Management has also asked staff on multiple occasions to lie to parents or omit information. They don't support the staff or give them the supplies (this includes GLOVES, TOILET PAPER, PAPER TOWELS, CLEANING SOLUTION, ETC.) and tools necessary to teach the children in their classrooms. They do not give teachers bathroom breaks and many teachers have suffered from UTIs because of that. It is an unhealthy environment for both the staff and the children enrolled. It is a definite DO NOT RECOMMEND.
