I really enjoy working for this company. The job has very flexible hours which has been useful to me as a full-time college student. At the job, I teach and sometimes write exercises for a wide variety of computer science related classes. I mostly teach classes over the summer. During the summer, I teach week-long classes of 3-10 students about a subject related to computer science. In the morning I give presentations about the subject and have students work on projects or smaller problems related to the subject. In the middle of the day, my students typically join with students from other classes to work on STEM based arts and crafts activities which I often lead or assist in leading. After the STEM activity and lunch, I typically take my students outside along with the other classes and supervise the students as they play outside. In the afternoon, I then return to teaching about that week's subject until the students are picked up by parents.
I am really passionate about what I do for my job as I am helping to prepare a future generation of learners to be successful in the computer science industry. I have learned about a large number of different subjects—many of which I believe will be useful for the future of my career—through preparing for and teaching different types of classes. Everyone I have worked with at the company has been exceedingly kind and easy to work with and the campus director is accommodating and supportive. I would highly recommend working for this company.

I began my journey with iCode as an instructor and quickly transitioned to the role of assistant director. My experience with iCode has been incredibly positive. The company fosters a supportive and growth-oriented work environment, encouraging employees to develop skills they may have lacked at the start.

Like any meaningful job, the work can be demanding, but if you’re committed to giving 100%, the results are both visible and rewarding. Teaching hands-on classes at iCode has helped me sharpen my computer science skills significantly. The management team is outstanding, going above and beyond to accommodate the needs of their staff.

One of the things I appreciate most is the team-oriented culture, where collaboration is encouraged, and support is always available. However, the highlight of the job is undoubtedly the students. Their energy and enthusiasm make the work truly fulfilling.

If you’re only looking for a paycheck and aren’t invested in iCode’s mission to provide quality STEM education, this may not be the place for you. But for those who share a passion for teaching and innovation, iCode is an exceptional place to grow and thrive. I genuinely love being part of this organization

iCode is a fun job yet suffers from poor management with its curriculum and payment of the staff. As teachers you are told to just work with the material you have and any extra information you can supplement into the class. While this makes every camp something fresh and unique to whoever is teaching it also creates inconsistencies. The slides you are told to use can range from decent to absolutely awful. The slides and activities need serious retooling yet we have no incentive to do so. I offered to fix one of the slides before because I was concerned about the quality of information they were receiving but was told I wouldn't be compensated for doing so. Otherwise pay during the summer is fine (12$ an hour and 7hr work days) but your time is cut down during the school year so for some (like myself) this can become financially unviable. No sort of benefits are provided for the teachers and advancement is not an option either. The teachers and general staff in the office are all super nice and fun people though. TLDR if you are looking for a fun part time or a summer job for college go for it. Otherwise you may want to look elsewhere.

iCode of Wellesley provides an excellent environment for teaching computer science concepts to young students through fun and engaging methods. The vast programs they have available are well structured and easy to present, which makes it easy to connect to the student through lessons and projects. Management is very understanding and accommodating when it comes to schedule flexibility, which is a big plus for maintaining work-life-school balance.

While the job is highly enjoyable, there are moments when being firm with students is necessary to keep them attentive and on track during lessons. However, these challenges are far outweighed by the rewarding moments—such as being called a “favorite teacher” or seeing students demonstrate mastery of the topics you’ve taught.

This role has been a fantastic opportunity for someone like me who is passionate about all things computers and making a positive impact on the next generation in the field of technology and critical thinking.

From the first day of training, management’s flaws were clear.
I should have listened to the warning signs earlier on because managerial issues were daily and major.
Hours were incorrectly logged, training was insufficient (I hold a masters in education and have taught in public schools), and incorrect information was provided for all scheduled classes.
This would all be workable if management was willing to work through these issues.
Management does not have the interest of students, parents, or instructors and will tell any lie to fix a current issue and it becomes another employees issue (non-management).
Be very weary of signing on, NO management or full-time positions are available even though they are currently posted. It is to get applicants and they do not feel they need any management but are constantly inquiring about turnover. Take that as the red flag it is.


It's a great place to work if you're somewhat experienced in any sort of technical field, be it robotics, coding, video editing, or game creation, there is meaningful work you can do for iCode. The management is extremely corporative with instructors, planning classes well in advance and giving instructors the freedom to teach their classes the way they want. The most enjoyable part of the job is the interactions with students and parents, and the satisfaction from seeing them succeed. Overall a great place to work, and I would still be working there if I didn't have to move on to college.  

This is a franchise so I cannot speak for other locations.  The location I was employed at was “East Frisco” which also housed the corporate offices.  Though during my interview it was conveyed to me that they wanted a good work/team environment and company culture.  It was completely the opposite. It should have been a red flag for me when the front desk staff told me there were two recent directors, in her words, one lasted three days and the other a month.  I stayed for the amount of time I did because I believed in the curriculum.  Besides that horrible hours, no benefits, misogynistic, not a team environment, and inappropriate comments were made to female staff members. 

Very unprofessional place of business with questionable practices.

Fun environment, very welcoming workplace and great experience teaching in the classroom. This is a very rewarding job giving young kids the skills and confidence to build something technical if they have never tried coding or robotics before (or giving them a fun and supportive place to be creative if they have) and you leave at the end of day feeling accomplished and excited to show them something new the next class. You have flexibility and the support from management to try different things and adapt the class to fit the needs and interests of the students which is very helpful.

I've had many jobs in my life, some great, some terrible, but one of the things that all the good workplaces had in common was great culture from the top down, and that's definitely the case with iCode. 
It's a company with a mission to provide kids with the knowledge they need for the jobs of tomorrow, and that mission seems to attract people who are passionate about that mission. 
From the top down, iCode empowers employees to take what they know and get things done, and that kind of empowerment makes for a great work environment. 


Been a worker here for almost 2 years, and asking for a raise was so difficult. Upper management was fixated on a rate depending on the person's education level, with $16 being for college graduates (which, they don't get) . Be wary of this if you plan on applying. They also call workers "redundant".  Clear favoritism in the workplace. They don't put you on shifts if they don't like you without any notice. People are unable to make rent due to low wages as well. $16 for college graduates. I don't recommend working here unless you're a teen. Overall, the experience was nice outside of working with management, and the kids .
