Pros

Great children to work with

Cons

Specifically to the Ivybrook Academy Winston-Salem location, AWFUL WORK ENVIRONMENT!! Owner of this location curses at staff members at staff meetings and talked to us like DIRT. Owner lied on multiple staff members and also allowed workplace bullying take place inside the building AND outside of the building. The owners proceeded to blame the victim of the bullying for expressing concerns to people higher up. The owners try to induce fear in their employees. They allow situations to get way out of hand when it comes to staff members as well as children. And if you happen to be a concerned parent ask the owners of the Winston-Salem location for proof that all teachers are CPR certified because I assure you they are NOT.

Pros

Working here has truly been a positive and meaningful experience. One of the biggest reasons is how genuinely supportive and compassionate the leadership team is. The administration is always approachable, readily available when help is needed, and willing to step in to offer support during both everyday challenges and more difficult moments. What stands out most is that management understands employees are people first. They recognize that real life happens and that family matters. When personal situations come up, they are accommodating, understanding, and encourage you to take care of what is important at home without making you feel guilty for it. It is rare to find a workplace where you feel valued not only for the work you do, but also cared for as a person. There is a sincere sense that your well-being matters, and that kind of support creates a positive environment where employees can feel respected, appreciated, and motivated to do their best each day.

Cons

Working with children creates unpredictability at times. You don't always know what the day will bring even with the best laid out plans you have to pivot and change. Admin continues to assist with that and is there to help you come up with solutions.
