Pros

The HR department is great. Coworkers are nice and dedicated to helping families. Families are great to work with.

Cons

One of the worst nonprofits anyone could ever work for. There are talented employees, yet some individuals working in the leadership team are so out of touch with front-line staff and the communities we serve. One particular person thinks that because they know the ins-and-outs of education, that they know the ins-and-outs of a nonprofit. There are ideas, but no order and people are extremely overworked with no support from anyone. This organization dedicates themselves to serve communities, while not caring for their own employees. This organization works to provide people with good early childhood education centers and support, yet their own employees are struggling. It is not fair and those responsible should be ashamed of themselves. If you haven't heard of Chicago Commons, its because you shouldn't be. Do not apply to work here, you will want to leave just like everyone else is doing.

Pros

High pay and good benefits for the industry.

Cons

Little planning time, leaders have poor communication, high stress, leaders focused more on the appearence of developmentally appropriate, Reggio-inspired practice than actually ensuring those values are being implemented in classrooms.
