      Pros

      A few nice people work there.

      Cons

      Too many to list. Corporate cares nothing about their franchisees and nickels and dimes them. They don't even want to talk to the franchisees owners on the phone after they have signed on and given them the money for the franchise. They send them to a "suppot" desk which is manned by one person. The turnover is crazy. The owner cares nothing but HER bottom line which is money.

      Pros

      Working with students; witnessing their accomplishments first hand. Opportunity to work in schools, as well as, park districts. Office work may be available, for additional hours.

      Cons

      Question how many of these reviews are FABRICATED and or EMBELLISHED. Being forthright; completely and blatantly honest, because unlike this FRANCHISE, this is what employees. know and practice. Employees were spoken down to; taken advantage of, disrespected and dismissed. The owners of this Franchise had no appreciation for how flexible their employees were, in retrieving supplies and scheduling for classes. Working for this company results in feeling appalled at the lack of organization from the FRANCHISE owners. Talk about disorganized!!! In addition these owners were AWFUL with time management, and expected their employees to drive to pick up materials; materials which didn't always coordinate to the lesson plans. NO FULL Time available.

      Pros

      The curriculum the company developed was fantastic. All of the lessons were project based, and allowed a hands on approach to learning, which is important for younger students. At the time I joined, I was hired as an Assistant Teacher with expectations of becoming a Lead Teacher. After only a few field experiences, they promoted me to Lead Teacher with higher compensation. Everyone from the owners of the companies, to the other teachers are all excellent to work with.

      Cons

      Meeting before/after classes to get supplies to teachers can be inconvenient.
