Pros

You get to visit schools, be in nice areas, employees are usually friendly, not really deal with a customer service/retail type job. Kids can be cool (although not always the case)

Cons

You're gonna get a cool number to as a wage but then realize you're gonna get close to no hours because no school wants a star program, you're gonna have to do all sorts of stuff you're not even qualified for. You're gonna have to go to meetings really early in the morning and you'll never get a raise. Also, people will call you at the last minute to try and get you to work a spot. Also, the CEO will tell you the same damn story about her self every time you go to one of these meetings.

Pros

Kids are great to work with, and you get the opportunity to make a positive contribution to society. Lots of cake, if you work in the main office.

Cons

Poor management. Nepotism runs wild and you have no opportunity to advance unless you play this game. Nothing is based on merit. You will receive cake instead of a raise, as the Executive Director doesn't really understand modern business. Extremely high turnover, as people catch on to the major problems with this company.
