Pros

Awesome children, caring families, funnest job I have ever had; wouldn’t trade it for the world

Cons

Management very clique-y, feels very alone sometimes, hard for others to see your hard work. Try to get excited about it they mentally tear you down for it. BIG NEWBIE CUTURE; if you’re a newbie they want you to stay your roll. Always feeling like someone is talking behind your back.
