Vantaggi
The "four-day" work-week (noninstructional day on Friday).
Svantaggi
Where to begin? * Rude, unspportive upper-management--will barely observe you or give applicable feedback and will make snap-shot judgments even though they chose to hire you * Don't actually need help--they don't like that and will use it against you despite the open-door policy nonsense that they push. * Exaggerates about benefits/ability to get "montessori credential" Will make a big deal of it when they hire you but will say absolutely nothing about it the moment you begin your position. *Gives you no Montessori training--presents themselves as an accredited facility to parents and the community but has several nonaccredited teachers--they will give you no training/a mentor that works 30 miles from you/no books or programs about Montessori pedagogy but will push it and reprimand you when you don't properly apply it. * PTO "accrual" program--will punish, badmouth, and terminate employment over employees taking "excessive" PTO even if it is a medical emergency. * Excessive meetings and paperwork * Excessive policies that have minimal outcomes and micromanaging employees/reprimanding them in front of students and other staff. *Outlines your workday and their expectations during orientation that they claim they are perfectly fine with "your work day ends at 4" but when you have boundaries and don't work past those hours they claim you aren't doing enough and guilt trip/blame you.
