Pros

The kids you work with are great

Cons

Little to no support, awful benefits with no 401k match and you can’t even afford to put money into a retirement account with what they pay. Management sits up front, watching cameras and talking badly about staff and children/families. Not very professional and only care about how many kids they can shove in a room to make money. Teachers are often left over state ratios with no help, even if you call up front. They expect you to have multiple lesson plans for every day and you’re lucky to get an hour a week to plan with the one laptop they have for staff. They have none of the books or materials needed in the lesson plan books from corporate. The environment is always stressful and you are overworked and underpaid.

Pros

Corporate company pushes franchisees to follow their standards

Cons

Owners don't always care to told up the standard and will lie and expect employees to lie as well. If they don't lie, they get pushed out. Even letting regional managers know they will try to turn a blind eye.
