SCOPE EDUCATION SERVICES

Probably the absolute worst company I've ever worked for. Work life balance does not exist, especially if you're in school. Site directors are not to miss any days due to school obligations. This company operated extremely inappropriately during the start of the pandemic. Children were  not required to wear masks. We were to operate in extremely high summer temperatures without an Air conditioner in our room. Food supplies were delivered close to expiration dates, operating supplies were to be used sparingly as we were not given new items. Certain people from HR and upper management expressed no care in the world in regard to employee personal health needs.

*Penalized for calling out during state of emergency snow storm
*Top heavy salaries
*Top 3 people make all decisions including getting involved in and completing lower level management responsibilities
*Humiliating people during their terminations
*Took away sick time for all part-time employees
*No raises for part-time employees- F/T not guaranteed and only 1-2% if that
*Poor communication and unclear directives that change without notification
*No administrative support
*Poor leadership

the start always with daily schedule and activities for the day and making the assignments for the kids and dividing the work among the coworkers.The fun part always was teaching kids in a fun way where they can learn and play same time teaching the a little hints of real life.All my co-workers were  like a part of the family,this way we solve all the problems so the hardest part of the work seems easy .some times the hard was if kids don,t listen  and you want to punish them............
but with care and love message goes faster...........

A typical day at work includes helping the children with homework, setting up crafts for the children to do, provide recreational activities, and of course enjoying a healthy snack. I have learned how to take charge and how to be a organized person. The hardest part about the job is making sure the parents are happy with the way their children are being treated. The best part about the job is when you see the kids learning and growing up. Most of the children come to us in kindergarten and stay until they reach graduation from the school. Seeing them grow up before your eyes is a great experience.

You won't get paid as much as you deserve, for the amount of work you do, no matter what your job title is. Everyone has to pick up slack for others in all regards, and this is only made better/worse depending on the attitude of your coworkers. I love the kids, they make it less of a job, but coworkers are very hit/miss. I've been with SCOPE for four years and you can clearly tell upper management have no idea what it's like to be at the program working directly with children.

What is the best part of working at the company?
People are friendly and respectful and the children are great 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Go to assigned class. Set up thee room help children unpack and work and play. Assist with lunch and open food. Pack up and assist in getting students out to parents

I worked at SCOPE during my first couple of years at college. It was my first experience in a paid position working with children. I worked there for Three school years and I enjoyed it a lot. I had to leave to finish up school when my college schedule was intense but now that I graduated, I would love to go back while waiting to find a full time job. I enjoyed it there a lot.

If you're a college student looking for some side money, it's a pretty good gig. However, you may have to deal with some difficult personality types at work(students and co-workers).

I had to quit because some of my co-workers didn't have the childrens' best interest. They were more interested in being a micromanagers and bossing the children around. The children were a delight to be around and I miss them. 

If you like to work with kids, It’s a decent program to work. You have a lot to do in a short time frame. Once you know the job not much else to it. It’s a good job for some one who needs part time work and has older children. Job is only offered in before care hours and aftercare hours. Not much growth and pay scale between group leaders and assistant Directors is just a dollar difference. Not worth being an assistant for just a dollar more than group leader.

The idea of the company is great...but the work we do with the kids deserved better pay...We're also pulled to so many different sites because they're so understaffed due to layoffs/furloughs during the pandemic. The way management handles things is antiquated....a lot of wasted paper...Supplies for our program are lacking!
