School of Rock Employee Reviews

Good platform but like any buisness or franchise location, population, students, and level of tahe teachers varies from each location. Generaly its good but as pro the money is small byt the value for me is feeling like im sharing my talent with the community mostly kids and thats the best part.

Working at school of rock isnt a job you do to survive, its a job you do because you believe in the idea of the program as well as the students and their education. Working at school of rock isnt sustainable and the employees are worth more than we're paid and treated.

Having an actual list of expectations from the owners would have made for a better experience. Maybe yearly reviews, too. With the lack of these basic tools, it was difficult to accomplish much or plan ahead.

The pay is not reflective of my career-spanning experience or my current responsibilities

I enjoy teaching but the pay is really low and management is often trying to get you to do more. No benefits

Cares about what they do

They are open to addressing concerns and positive and supportive. Above all they are transparent.

My general manager and music director and very understanding and generally try to make things work of I need a day off or am too sick to come in. I appreciate everything they've done for me and for fighting for me to potentially become full time, even though it falls on deaf ears.

Valuing employees by paying them enough. Not being so profit oriented.

Understand that a "one size fits all" model is stifling to students and instructors alike. Allow discretion to be made on the ground level. Make instructors feel more like the talented artists they are instead of the script readers they expect. Compensate for all mandatory work duties.

Invest in your employees. SoR charges more than any other studio in the area. They can afford to pay their instructors better. It's a revolving door with instructors because pay is far below market rate. This is not real music education. It's a great idea, but a complete joke. Shame on you

Paying staff a liveable wage and following work laws. No breaks, benefits, raises, or notice of pay changes more than a week before paychecks come out. Terrible unless you want to deficate all of your time and effort to it and work a second job

Revisión Publicado hace 4 años

Understanding if you want good experienced instructors, you need to pay a living wage. If you want former students/teenages who just want to make a quick buck, cool. But advertise yourself that way. This is not an insitution for the best education, because you dont pay for the best.

The pay is decent, but the hours are not. If I was full time, after my 2.5+ years with the company, then they would be more consistent and I wouldn't need a yearly pay raise, I would have enough hours to make up for the less pay.

Just someone to actually listen to ideas other than their own.

No one is paid a livable wage. Corporate expects a level of commitment they aren't willing to pay for. "The instructors understand the pay is what it is. They don't get paid well on gigs either" is the excuse I was given when I inquired about why rates are so low.

We need more diverse leadership to be provided to the managers of individual schools. You cannot have someone in an extremely populous area on the west coast telling someone what will work for a midwest school. It is very naive to think the approach will be the same.

The app is neat on paper but cumbersome to students and overbearing/monopolizing to instructor lessons. The in-house pedagogical literature (exercise books) range from sufficient to bafflingly backwards in content and delivery. The bands should cover a wider array of genres, not just 70s-90s rock.

Corporate needs to understand how a school works and to offer the support franchisees pay for, including a plan for better profitability and better pay for instructors.

The reassurance of our jobs that we have benefits and a system in place to protect the teachers of this company who are scape goats for legal matters.

Better management, better pay, better benefits. The teachers at the school get a very small portion of money that is paid for lessons. It is quite heinous.

It was too easy. I got the job without the managers even seeing me play. I could've been a complete amateur, but I fit the instrument and schedule they needed, and that's good enough. Something to keep in mind.

This company is greedy. Everybody wants to make a profit and I understand that, but the company is hurting itself by failing to keep talent. As a result, turnover is high for both students and instructors.

As I said, corporate needs to be understanding of the individual needs of each unique school. This is not a cookie cutter business that they are trying to push on us.
