Pros

I gave this only three stars because of the pay. Work is always available if you want. Also flexible if you have other things going on. Changing locations for variety or choose a long term position for consistency. You can be a classroom aid or substitute teacher. Experience and something to put on a resume if you’re looking to enter the field. I personally have never had a problem with management or customer service although at certain times it takes longer to answer the call.

Cons

Depending on the school you choose the pay rate can be as low as $75 a day or up to $95 and that’s all before taxes. If your a certified teacher you make a little more.

Pros

Great way to get yourself in a number of School districts and get your foot in the door.

Cons

When your hit with the holidays , snow days or early dismissals it can really hurt your paycheck. Did not see to much opportunity as far as professional developments went.

Pros

I don’t have any reason to recommend ESS!

Cons

Your on call and the online and call system doesn’t work accurately making you not gain work as a normal employee hired for a full or part-time position. I was offered a full-time position and was told that while they were hiring me they hired another individual for that same position so I got stuck with the substitute position after leaving a permanent position I already had at a different school district.
