Pros

Management was understanding and did not balk at additional grocery and equipment expenses when needed.

Cons

Supervisor was very inconsistent with written and verbal communication. On one occasion, I was not advised the details of class structure (number of students, class schedule). Would often have to leave multiple messages and emails for supervisor regarding class schedule and made it difficult to plan out my week. Assured me I would get additional shifts when requested but did not get shifts. There is also a lot of work that is unpaid. Grocery sourcing and cleanup was quite time consuming and you are paid a flat rate. The ovens were terrible and cooked the food unevenly.

Pros

Fun work, involving kids in preparing and cooking recipes for them to eat by class end.

Cons

With their management in Chicago and no supervisors physically in California, there are communication problems. Though I delivered high quality lessons and got our contracts renewed, I was bypassed for a much less qualified and less dedicated instructor.
