Pros

The kids and families make this job nice. I love that so many families continue to return back to this school and genuinely love the care that they are receiving.

Cons

There is a lot of drama and negativity in this company. Workers often don't get a long and very few hold themselves up as educators. This is reflective of the almost non-existent relationships between upper management, school management, and employees. While this issue isn't unique to Chesterbrook Academy, in the 21 st century, it is no longer an excuse to not prioritize encouragement and support for your employees. Childcare is nothing without quality employees.

Pros

- While it definitely varies school-to-school, the atmosphere at my location was generally positive. - IF you get good teachers, there's flexibility to be creative. - Curriculum is above average. - Professional development opportunities (while very limited) exist.

Cons

- There is always drama between employees that management isn't equipped to handle. - corporate only cares about the bottom dollar. - As an assistant principal I ended up running the school because the principal chose to come in at noon since she "didn't take a lunch and worked until 6". But when the school met the budget plan 4 quarters in a row, SHE got a monitary bonus for the work I did. - Pay is not even close to a living wage. - Barely any vacation (1 week after a year, 2 weeks after 5 years, 3 weeks after 10 years) and no sick time (2-3 days a year). - often required to come to work even if sick.
