Pros

I have just began working for Guidepost Montessori and I am absolutely in love with their mission and company culture. It truly feels like a company that is set out to make a difference in education and in the world. Everyone I have interacted with thus far is highly passionate, hard working and excited about the work we do for the children and their families. It really feels like a dream job.

Cons

Let me start out by saying, I waited for this job all summer because I was so excited that it is a new company and I aligned with the mission so perfectly. I have experience with small companies so I felt prepared for the slow release of information and the willingness to give and receive feedback to make processes better. It doesn't bother me much but if someone wasn't used to a new company, it could be frustrating at times. That being said, Guidepost's central team is improving quickly and working hard to make everything clear, have new employees well trained and are super open to feedback. So, barely a con really.

Pros

I have been with Guidepost for almost four years, and I am extremely happy in my role as a Children’s House Lead Guide. I truly couldn’t ask for a better position. The work environment is very positive, and I am surrounded by kind, supportive colleagues. The leadership is exceptional—our Head of School is an amazing, understanding, and uplifting person who creates a culture where everyone feels valued we feel supported and I’ve learn so many new skills. Even in last-minute or challenging situations, she responds with positivity and grace. I feel very supported and appreciated every day.

Cons

There are very few downsides to mention. Like any workplace, occasional last-minute situations can arise, but they are handled very well by head of school.

Pros

I’ve been at Guidepost for four years, and it has truly been one of the most meaningful experiences of my career. Watching each child grow, gain confidence, and thrive is a joy I never take for granted. I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t wholeheartedly believe in the work we do. The safety and wellbeing of every child is at the center of our mission, and I wouldn’t recommend this school if I didn’t fully trust that each child is cared for with genuine respect, compassion, and intention. Beyond the incredible environment we create for our children, the team here is something special. We support, trust, and genuinely care about one another. I couldn’t write this review without mentioning our admin team. They have created a culture of care, respect, and trust with the staff. They guide us, encourages us, and continually helps us grow. Working at Guidepost has been a magical experience.

Cons

Honestly, there’s not much that I would deem a “con”
