Pros

6 hours per day guarantee and higher pay.

Cons

They throw trips on your tablet without prior notice and are now saying that if you cannot do it, you forfeit your daily guaranteed pay. We are told about *mandatory* meetings with less than 24 hours notice nearly every single time and are told that if we cannot attend, there will be disciplinary action. Our routes are never correct. We put in reports to HR about concerns and nothing is done. We put in incident reports for weeks/months regarding student behavior and get nearly zero support from the company or schools.

Pros

One thing that stands out to me is the consistency. The schedule is predictable, expectations are reasonable, and the environment remains professional. The position has been a positive experience for me because I know what to expect from week to week.

Cons

I don’t have any concerns about the driving conditions.

Pros

The office was in an accessible location. My coworkers themselves were not difficult to work with.

Cons

• The team's project management system was nothing more than a shared Google Sheet. • The supposed operational infrastructure did not exist. No database, automation, or real task tracking system. • Repeated requests for basic tools were ignored and met with empty promises about future budgets. • The role became constantly inventing solutions while manually doing work proper systems should have handled. • Everything was built on workarounds and personal memory, making growth nearly impossible. • After six months of creating fixes for problems that should have been automated, there was simply nothing left to improve.
