Pros

Higher pay than in my area.

Cons

Around our center, Directors compete to save money and are recognized by their superiors. As you guessed, that affects our center. Low supplies causes teachers to spend their own money. Inadequate staffing causes teachers to work on their own time and become stress. Ratios are advertised as NAEYC ratios but are not. This corporation has a business mentality and working in the field, having proproganda shoved down your throat is not ideal. One training video suggested that there were many families without childcare and it was our duty to let them know about our center... Um no. It's not my duty to invite more families into a stressful environment just so that knowledge universe can reap the money benefits. My duty is to provide a healthy/safe, meaningful, creative, and loving environment for our children, of course while maintaining the classroom, displaying their work, and working with parents to create a clear communication on how we both should be working with their child.

Pros

The kids are super sweet and fun

Cons

Management lies about what they are prepared to offer you. They hire you on, offering a promotion as soon as you meet certain metrics, then once you've met them, they refuse to promote. I was hired to be a director, was told to just complete my state mandated hours on site as a teacher, then I would be promoted. I finished my house rain two months and six months later had not received any promotion. They will cut employees hours to train new employees.
