Pros

I'm doing something of value to humanity instead of making the rich richer. Lots of smart people who sincerely care about education. Nice office. Unlimited PTO. Good work/life balance.

Cons

Lots of tech debt, although the company has made significant progress in cleaning it up in the past couple of years. Some work is rushed.

Pros

Through training (in the beginning) and supportive peers.

Cons

Although I was so excited for the PLS opportunity, that excitement quickly faded when, mid-summer (after the formal kick-off event/training in Houston in mid May), I had zero opportunities scheduled, even though I made myself available all but 4 days the entire summer! I finally received a session three days before my return to my full-time teaching job at the end of August. I took the job, but have no idea why, since the one payday was not worth it, especially after putting my summer plans on hold for no reason. I also learned that new hires who were not seasonal PLS were given priority with scheduling, as other seasonal PLS in my region also reported little to no work.
