Pros

Split shift is convenient if you go to school or errands/appointments. Dont have to be with children all day. Families are pretty awesome.

Cons

Not fully trained on alphabest ways, even if you come with experience with other companies. Then get in trouble for not doing what they didn't train you on. Not guaranteed the hours they promised to ensure you can pay bills. The other reviews from other sites are right, some staff are favored than others.
