Pros

CIS' mission to support students and prevent drop out is excellent. They are good at partnering with community businesses to get funding for student support. There isn't much oversight from supervisors and you can run the program on your campus the way you see fit. Supervisors of empathetic, supportive, and will help you resolve any problems. You work school hours and have school holidays and summers off.

Cons

The pay is not a livable wage, nor is it fair compensation for what you are asked to do in terms of support and documentation. There is a stipend for medical insurance, but it's not enough to cover yourself, much less a family. You get 13 vacation days a school year and they tell you that they'll 'roll over,' but you can only use what is rolled over at the discretion of a director and under very specific circumstances.
