Project Future shady practices
There was a post awhile ago from an employee that used to work at the Highlands location and I did not take them seriously. I assumed it was just a disgruntled employee blowing off some steam. As someone that not only worked at Project Future and then quit because of some of their practices, I can tell you they were 100% right. Not only did the director there get promoted to executive director, but she is also a narcissistic dictator and is taking over the centers. As soon as she took control, she fired multiple people for completely ridiculous reasons. 1 teacher asked for help and was extremely overwhelmed. She was fired for having an attitude while asking for help. Another went to the OWNERS and told them how she was uncomfortable with the way the executive director was treating staff (including yelling at them in front of parents and just being overall degrading). She was then fired for talking about the executive director behind her back… by the executive director!! Management will also “forget” to withhold taxes and Aflac from staff paychecks until they either quit or are fired so they can keep their last check for back pay. (Completely legal just shady af).
Teachers are great but don’t work here if you value your mental health or want to be treated like a decent human being.

This has not been our experience with Project Future at all, and my wife works at their Air Park location.

It’s awful. Couldn’t wait to get my kid out of there any longer. Pulled them 2 months before our new place even had room and just made it work.
