Pros
You don't have to see the tools you work for very often!
Cons
The novelty of working remotely wears off quickly once you realize you will not be actually using your experience and expertise to teach students who need you. Rather, you become simply a facilitator for a credit mill. The idea is that courses are basically online textbooks where students login and read and submit work for you to grade. The concept isn't bad except that the course/text would NEVER pass muster as an actual academic textbook. If taught in a physical classroom, you could cover an entire FLVS course in four to six weeks. There is a limit though...two weeks! That is the minimum they can, and do, get away with. The brevity of the coursework and the extremely low bar for quality submissions attract lots of students. At FLVS, fast completions and minimal accountability are the predominant virtues. It's certainly not in the best interests of students. It is however in the best interests of FLVS's bottom line or "return on investment." The directors and managers never...ever...reflect on how much learning is happening. But there is intense interest in how many course completions can be accomplished in the fewest number of weeks. Again, the "bottom line" is the only concern. As an employee you will be depressed if teaching is a profession you really care about. You will also be angry a lot of the time...at least when you can generate the energy to be angry. FLVS assumes you are always trying to get over (scamming your way through is a corporate value so it's natural I guess for the managers to assume that). The result is that you will be monitored closely and pressured to work 70 hours a week.
