I hate 4Cats - Curator 4Cats Employee Review

fun, creative job with kids

A lot of employee turnover, pay low.

You get to teach some really sweet kids and interact with their kind parents.

DO NOT WORK HERE if you care even the slightest about ethics, or teaching or art. - You will be exploited for your experience and skills and taken advantage of. - No proper training or encouragement, you're basically just thrown in the deep end and have to run a studio without being compensated fairly for all the jobs you have to do which includes being a teacher, a janitor, a nanny, customer service and sales. - You will be talked down to and belittled by management because they do not care about you. Staff are overworked and underpaid. - You have to recite the lesson plans word for word. Kids are not allowed any creative freedom and if they manage to add their own touch, you will be held accountable. - Be prepared to completely paint over work to make it look "good" (whatever that means). - Workshops have to be followed exactly as demonstrated or again, you will get in trouble. - Customers cannot reach management so you will have to deal with all complaints and angry customers even if the situation was out of your control. You will have to deal with awful customers that will yell at you.
