Pros

Not much as I could remember

Cons

It was my first job after graduation-and certainly the worst. I do not want to comment on the other G8 centre that I have not worked with, but only focus on this one in Ryde area. Very poor management. The director had to cover the director role at another G8 centre for a long period of time so we missed a lot of communication opportunity with the manager. When the second-in-charge person took the director role, the management became even worse. A lot of gossiping. After leaving the job I have heard a few other staff leaving the centre.

Pros

Variety of centres to work at

Cons

G8 expects a lot but not giving a lot. Pay is average at best. Too much focus on what we look like on the outside (documenting, writing daily reports, photos, observations too much time on an ipad) rather than actually giving us time to connect and engage with children. Older centres are falling apart but nothing gets fixed cause money is rather spent on new flashy centres that bring more money in. We've had roofs collapse, water pour through, floods etc they put a bandaid on so to speak but dont actually fix anything permanently. We get a thank u gift card here and there and a limited amount to spend on an afternoon tea for staff as 'appreciation'. Meanwhile we have to use our own time to catch up on any development courses because during work hours we're notoriously understaffed and overworked.
