Pros

very positive atmosphere, good pay, okay benefits,

Cons

while its a positive atmosphere there is a lot of behind closed doors gossiping with a fake smile to one's face, long long hours, they treat employees horrible if they decide to leave or asked to not return, heavy turnover, there's no real work/life balance, this job is great for young professionals but it'll take its toll, most people last 2-4 years before realizing there's more to life,

Pros

I guess the diversity but honestly if you didn't speak Spanish or weren't part of the "in" crowd you were seen as not being cooperative and getting aLoNG with the team. You get to see some people with some outdated wigs and some botched BBLs, so there's that. 🤷‍♂️

Cons

doesn't discipline children behavior management of the students is lacking teachers are expected to stay hours after just to get prepared literally pass children that cannot read/write
