Pros

Great schedule if you have school-age children of your own; time off for major holidays; pay is competitive for metro ATL school districts

Cons

Over worked and under paid (this has gotten exponentially worse since Covid has transitioned from a pandemic to "new normal"); did I mention working well over 40 hours per week?; expected to pick up the slack for the vacancies that can't be filled because of the first two cons

Pros

You get a wide variety of schools to work with.

Cons

South Fulton and Alpharetta are really far away from the city center, and there can be a lot of favoritism in those areas. Paraprofessional pay is very low, and that can sometimes be the only thing that is available on Aesop. You may barely have a break to take your lunch - 30 mins or so.
