Pros

Better pay than most other childcare facilities

Cons

It is a business first and foremost which is fine except they claim that they are their "for the children" they are not. They provide no training or incentives to allow the employees to better themselves or climb the ladder. The higher management acts more like children than the "customer's" of their "school". They insist on putting on a show to impress potential customers at the cost of the educational goals of the children.
