Pros

Pay rate Good management Team environment

Cons

Outside work No increase on pay, untill you apply for leadership position

Block by Block Response

I'm not aware of any contracts where increases and bonus isn't available. Often, if the district doesn't have revenue to increase they will forgo services and use that money saved to offer increases.

Pros

Independence Growth Culture Innovation Future outlook

Cons

Hard to think of them, but if I had to choose it would be the occasional inconvenience. Insurance is a little on the high end.

Business Outlook

Pros

Flexible hours. Pay starting at $20 per hour ($30 for OT) and easy to swap shifts without needing approval. Show up on time and in uniform and the jobs not that hard. Don't have to worry about being laid off because its an essential employee role and everyone worked through the pandemic.

Cons

Its hard dealing with the homeless sometimes.
