Pros

-Camaraderie - you become very close with the people you work with -Loyalty - your co-workers and supervisors have your back and always stand up for you when you are in need -Mileage - reimbursed for most travel -Training - they are committed to follow on training and personal development -Accountability - they expect you to fulfill your responsibilities and give you the opportunity to find your own creative solutions to problems -Autonomy - you are given room to manage your team as you see fit, as long as expectations are met and goals are achieved. -Support - leadership is always available for assistance, requests, information, guidance, etc. and offer genuine interest in your well-being. I worked with some of the greatest, most supportive, instructive, invested supervisors of my professional life. Leaving them was heartbreaking.

Cons

-Very few paid holidays. -Convoluted Time-Off procedures. -Have to work with school system regardless of how inefficient/bureaurocratic/micro-managing/etc. the school system may be.

Pros

Working with kids. Great co-workers. Pay is pretty good.

Cons

Management is bad here. My recommendation would be to go to Minnieland and find people that care about their workers. Supervisor is not present and does not support the staff. Supervisor does not even know employee names and has to constantly ask what your name is. Area Managers leave nonstop. There have been at least 10 office staff that have left in a year. Everyone that leaves posts on facebook how happy they are to be gone from the current supervisor. Policy changes daily. We are told to do one thing one day and then another the next and then another in a week. No stability.
