Pros

The kids are absolutely wonderful

Cons

Well for starters in the beginning I was told that I would be getting a 90 day review and then a raise. Which did not happen. Also, I was told that I made $8.00 an hour and they ended up paying me 7.75. On my first day there I was thrown into a classroom by myself. I had never worked in childcare before so I had absolutely no idea what I was doing when it came to taking care of 10+ screaming two year olds that had to be put on the potty every 30 minutes. As my first week went on I still never received any type of proper training in the classroom I was in, just had received rude notes from the lead teacher (that leaves at like, 2 in the afternoon) about all of the things I was doing wrong. Working at TLE never got any better after that. I felt miserable most days and was starting to feel as if the owner was using all of us. She is money hungry, does not care about any of the kids, parents, or her employees. The only thing she cared about was the way she made the daycare look. It was always about money and that is all it will ever be about to her. This has been the worst company I have ever worked for and I do not suggest it to anyone that actually wants to be successful.

Pros

Specifically for Morristown, NJ location: Other staff were fun and enjoyable. Children were a joy to be around. Decent benefits and decent pay for someone with experience. Center families were a joy to work with. Great work-life balance.

Cons

Specifically for Morristown, NJ location: Super high turnover rate. Management team unfriendly and unprofessional. Only greeted favorite families and favorite staff members in the morning. Condescending tone when giving directions or instructions to staff.
