Pros

The staff outside of admin that you work with are amazing! Teachers and other direct supervisors are incredible. Willing to go above and beyond to help, support, and genuinely make work an enjoyable experience.

Cons

Admin is only interested in nepotism. Hiring directly reflects any choices that are made related to staffing. Those related to the admin in any way are giving leaps and bounds to the blatantly obvious benefits. Only those related to admin are given information that can later be given if admin is consistently followed up with.

Pros

Most students are great and are fun to teach

Cons

I've worked at many schools. Hands down, this has the worst management and most toxic environment of any school I've ever been associated. You are constantly monitored by the paranoid administration, who make decisions on a whim. Turnover is horrible, with many staff members being fired each week. You always worry you'll be next. If the administration likes you, you are highly favored and praised. But those people are few and far between. Expect to be extremely micromanaged and have every email read/conversation monitored. Not a safe work environment. I know many who completely left education after leaving CGA. Oh and you have to wear an ugly blue shirt every day.
