Pros

- Good salary and benefits - Staff lunch - Great staff training. I really enjoy the focus groups and staff gatherings. - Nice company dinners - Internal staff awards - Nice colleagues - Manageable paperwork

Cons

- Management could have been better and be empathetic to teachers and their hardships. - Keeps on enrolling high amount of children while manpower suffers. Resulting in teachers getting stressed, burntout and tired by high children ratio. - Demanding parents - Keeps on enrolling children with special needs even though teachers couldn't cope already. I believe in inclusiveness but teachers are human too. Imagine trying to chase after a child with special needs who's running about while 18 other kids need you. - No AWS. Bonus is okay. - Principals need to bond with their teachers more and understand and be supportive instead of being taskmasters. - High teacher turn-over rate

Pros

- Lesson plan and online teaching materials provided. - Principal is rather approachable. - Salary is optimal. - Staff benefits not bad. - Literature-based curriculum - Once a month different external food catering for staffs (e.g. bento) - Central kitchen

Cons

- Long working hours. - Many many paperwork. Prone to changes and adding on more paperwork. - Always team meeting during lunch time, no rest. - Always have to complete paperwork during personal time (e.g. weekend). - So many staff trainings dont know for what, cannot claim off time. - High intakes of new children (like no quota). - Centre doesnt care if teachers can manage with so many new intakes joining all at the same day. - Always no teachers. Need to always rely on engaging relief teachers. - High staffs turnover rate. - Poor centre management/deployment of staffs.
