Pros

if you are lucky the Co workers They hire basically anyone so I guess if you are one of those people that can fake a care for kids than do no form of help and risk kids this is great for you

Cons

They hire basically anyone! No experience needed, no love for kids just hit you’re applying to be a LT Turnover rate (no one really returns) The ceo does nothing but lie. I had the unique experience of having several interactions with him over the summer. You are expected to work an unreasonable amount all while there are some people that do nothing and scream at kids like an abusive parent CEO model is basically fun OVER safety. This summer alone people have gotten chemicals in there eyes, I heard from my friends at other sites that two site basically lost a kid not to add we basically hide covid outbreaks and the only time I’ve seen us follow NYC school regulations was when we thought a inspector was coming…IF YOU VALUE KIDS SAFTEY DONT WORK HERE

Pros

I’ve worked at a few different camps, and NORY is by far the best run. The curriculum is genuinely fun to teach. It focuses on stem building, so you never feel like you're just babysitting. You get to lead real, hands-on engineering and robotics projects that the kids are excited about. I also love the culture here. teachers and kids celebrate "awesome mistaeks" and value empathy. They actually care. those values creates a real positive environment.

Cons

To be completely real you are expected to bring 100% positive energy to the camp every day. it's not a camp whre you can be on your phone and chill (i have been many of those). Also because it's so hands-on, things move fast. You have to be quick and savvy with tinkering.

- nice people and organized schedules

Cons

Felt like the management didn’t really care about the workers. Had to wake up early to bring supplies
