Great organization to work for, although it still suffers from typical budget/pay woes of a public school district. - Anonymous employee Austin ISD Employee Review

Pros

Plenty of time off, good benefits, retirement plan, various random freebies and perks from working within schools that apply to all staff, a good environment with generally friendly, helpful, and happy employees.

Cons

Very low budget (although this somewhat depends on the specific school you're at), changes in policy/leadership/technology/equipment take place very often, and they're usually slow and painful to implement, high rate of employee turnover, and while teachers aren't paid quite enough, support and classified staff are paid peanuts.

Pros

Decent pay and good PTO.

Cons

Demanding schedules. Administration doesn't communicate well, and budget cuts make the job harder.
