Svantaggi
This review is for Primrose School of Minnetonka in Minnesota. A really poisonous place to work, incredibly high turnover rate, unprofessional management. Lots of gossiping and bullying. Just some of the negatives: - you are frequently prevented from and discouraged from using the bathroom. They even made us write down HOW LONG it took us to use the bathroom for a while. They told one of my coworkers that she should limit her liquid intake. - Ten hours days with one 30 minute break. If there are after-school events you won't get another break (I worked 13 hours once with one 30 minute break and no thank you) - unqualified staff working with the children - You get zero support in the classroom, when you ask for help they are completely unresponsive and you'll be left waiting - The owner, Cathy, gossips all the time about the employees to others. She had her favorites and make sure everyone knows it, it's incredibly demoralizing. She's a really emotional, unprofessional woman. - There is zero team-building, most of the staff doesn't get any contact with each other so you feel isolated in your classroom and because of all of the turnover you don't know half of your co-workers names - They drop the ball on so many things...they don't keep parents informed about important things, they don't update staff, they make everyone look bad because of how unorganized they are - You get the third-degree when you call in sick and are often forced to work while very ill - there have been pregnant staff members who have asked to go to the hospital and told they have to wait - No healthcare benefits
