Pros
-You get the opportunity to do great work for kids who really need the help -Pay is decent (when it’s not cut) for a job where you get to learn about literacy and education without a degree -Other clinicians and consultants really work hard to help you out -The programs work WHEN IMPLEMENTED PROPERLY & the staff gets mentoring -Paid training for 80 hours in 2 of the programs to start -Opportunities to grow, especially if you are willing to move to a new location -Seasonal employees get a hefty bonus for returning each year -Flexible scheduling around college classes or another job
Cons
-Unpredictable schedule as many other reviews have said, schedule does not come out until Friday and then changes throughout the week -Pay was cut just before the holidays in a very cowardly, shady way (see more in advice to management) -Constantly changing systems for scheduling make it difficult for in-center management to create a reliable schedule -Year-round employees do not get any bonuses, only raises (on years that they decide to give employee reviews/raises), but raises are inconsistently given and when they are not it is not announced to employees (but the mailman gets a tip each year) -Push for employees to take on additional responsibilities without additional compensation -Very little help from management in the center for improvement of skills in working with students -Very pricey for students to attend so not all who could benefit from the specified learning processes developed by the company are able to -Company appears to care about each child but really just cares about turning a profit -Inconsistent mentoring of clinicians to ensure top-notch quality of instruction
