Pros

Company has a great "mission." Franchisees are nice people.

Cons

CEO is a poor leader and unable to communicate a vision/direction. Corporate priorities are constantly changing. Employee job descriptions and whether or not one actually still has a job changes each month. Inexperienced senior management (i.e. Chief Financial Officer was an MBA student). Although families are the company's main target audience, the senior management team doesn't have any working mothers.

Pros

Flexible hours that I could choose, nice working space. My boss was nice and very reasonable. Pay was decent after I completed some certifications. When the teaching was effective it was pretty rewarding and it can be fun to talk to the kids.

Cons

It was honestly a very tiring job. The kids can get really rowdy and difficult to manage, especially if you have to teach three at the same time. Management required us to use tablets and a finicky platform for worksheets that was not helpful and forced me to further split my attention.
