Pros
Working with some truly amazing kids
Cons
I worked at Northway Academy for 2 years and once I got FMLA they treated me differently to the point I found a new job. When I put my notice in they refused to let me finish my time and forced me to file for unemployment until I could start my new job. The reason for them doing that was something I have never once been talked to about because it’s a lie it was because of my FMLA but they know they can’t say that. They have done this to multiple people when they put their notice in. But at least with them they got paid their last two weeks, I did not. They paid me 2 days. Knowing I didn’t start for another 3 weeks at my new job. Very unprofessional and they will retaliate against you if you put your notice in! Keep that in mind before applying here. The place is a revolving door for a reason, it’s not just me who has chosen to leave other employees have as well due to the atmosphere and lack of follow through/blatant favoritism from higher ups. A very cliquey group of women would be an understatement when describing this work environment. You will get hurt and possibly sent to the hospital due to their lack of consideration for their employees. It happens to multiple people on a weekly basis. And if you voice your concerns you will be gaslit and told that other centers “have it worse” essentially and won’t allow staff breaks from certain individuals to avoid burn out simply to “test you”. Please be aware of this employer!! Specifically the sartell location.
