Pros

The teaching staff are wonderful people.The staff really worked great together and with the parents!!! I honestly don't have other complaints. Only one complaint.

Cons

One disrespectful director. This woman brings the companies image down. She created a very negative work enviornment. Believe it or not....but only this one person killed what could be a perfect job.

Pros

Nice facility... ish. My classroom had no windows to the outside. The benefits are good, but they kick in after 90 days and I quit well before that.

Cons

First of all, they have a warped sense of what children need. They expected way too much from 15 month-olds. They are so focused on adhereing to DCFS standards and state regulations that they forget about the KIDS! How can you give the kids the love and nurturing they deserve when your face is in an iPhone updating an app day day? The staff walks on eggshells for fear of getting in trouble with the director, who, by the way, got her degree from Devry. I'm sorry, but since when does Devry specialize in ECE? I was told I was the lead teacher, but given as much authority as the unqualified assistants in my room. I was treated like a moron despite have seven years experience prior. Every day was worse than the next and I was gone in less than a month.

Pros

Children were sweet and the parents were fantastic. Co-workers work hard and are rock stars.

Cons

Management is terrible. Director is a narcissist who talks behind teachers and parents back. Convinced she doesnt like children.
