Continue reading - Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Good at training teachers and providing extra work for staff.
Cons
Long hours which make the high pay become low when you do all the calculations of hours you put into. Some staff members are uptight. They can fire you anytime they want. When they don't like a teachers, it is very easy to let someone goes because it is at will contract.
- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
- I have a lot of autonomy when it comes to my day-to-day work, making decisions, and creating strategies. - My manager is amazing, really supportive and accommodative, and is always ready to guide me if I ever feel stuck. - The organization is always learning and growing. There are a lot of new things in the works that people are excited about. - Good compensation and benefits package for my role - Teams are a mix of people—some who have been there a long time and some that are new—which is a bonus because you can learn from people who have experience/wisdom AND learn from people who have fresh perspectives/new ideas. - They follow COVID protocols and guidelines in offices and school buildings, and always make sure to have staff and parents input when it comes to changing protocols.
Cons
- I sometimes feel that the organization can take a reactive approach rather than be more responsive when something comes up, but I do think that we are learning to be more intentional, purposeful, and strategic. - Be strict about setting your own boundaries so you don’t burn out. You don’t want to be the person who is constantly checking their phones and responding to emails at 9pm. Remember that tomorrow is another day.
- Former Employee★★★★★

Hardworking staff, lots of available technology

Constant coverages, large class sizes, long days, micromanaged staff
- Current Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★

Continue reading - Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Inclusive and supportive staff, great kids.
Cons
Lack of appropriate compensation. Should be full time.
