Pros

casual attire, wellness center, and a beautiful campus

Cons

Although Clayton does great work for the community, working here is a completely different story. Management and leadership is toxic and has no care or insight into the rest of the employees. Directors and exec staff are making 150k plus a year while educators are forced to work two to three jobs. This place functions like a start up even though it has been around for over 100 years. The work environment has further gone down hill over the past four years due to terrible leaders and this place is no longer the place it used to be. So sad.

Pros

Most of the front line staff really care about the families and the mission.

Cons

Toxic culture coming from the top, senior leadership treats staff like they are disposable. Unclear expectations, little to no training or support, constantly changing priorities, high turnover, lack of clear processes. Staff are expected to cover the work of open positions with no additional compensation and are barely paid a living wage to start with. Staff are stressed, burned out, and exhausted but management refuses to address concerns.
