      Pros

      If you have a good director, the job can be great. The kids are amazing, and the reason I stayed as long as I did. As a mom, no nights and weekends is a huge plus, and my director was willing to schedule my break around a school activity I wanted to attend. Discounts on daycare start after the age of 2

      Cons

      poor pay long hours inconsistent schedule little room for long term growth in the company little recognition for time in service- if you hit 20 years, you get a plaque on the wall corporate management generally has no child care experience, and makes decisions and changes that don't always work

        Pros

        You have a chance of a good director. However, this varies school to school and has no rhyme or reason.

        Cons

        1. Extremely low pay 2. Optional benefits for full time are not good 3. Toys and overall features of the school are outdated and old 4. Corporate is constantly adding more for the teacher to do with little training and NO planning time 5. No supply money 6. Excessive paperwork (cost/benefit is out of balance) 7. You end up doing all of the lesson plans on your own time at home 8. Regionally the district manager varies but if you have a bad one, then you are going to hate your job.

      Hello, Please be kind. I’m so out of the loop and beat down, and may have posted this in a wrong group. I have been at my job 11 years, applied for a new job out of my organization. Posting closed last Mon. Tues at 4:40 they emailed to request an interview and wanted my top days/times for upcoming M-W. I responded with pref Wed afternoon as 1, Tues early or late as 2 or 3. I have not heard a response. I have to figure out an excuse to go on Tues to leave work. Is this normal to keep hanging on?

      hi , I’m new here 👋 I have an interview coming up and I’m struggling on how to answer the “tell me about yourself statement question.” I personally don’t like to talk about myself and have the tendency to start talking about me but then I end up talking about what’s on my resume 🤦‍♀️ any advice ?

      Hi, I applied for a job at a small business warehouse and I had a phone call with them about 1.5 weeks ago. It went well and a few days after, I got an email asking me when can I do an in person interview. I replied the following business day and gave them three dates. However, it’s been 4 days and they have not responded back to my email response. I even sent them a follow up and nothing. What does this mean and what should I do?
