Pros
Good benefits; FT based on a 37.5 hr week with any add'l hrs being at time and a half.
Cons
No HR department. Only a liaison between workers and principals. If you had an outstanding issue with your immediate boss - tough - it is only handled as he/she sees it. Irrespective of 'normal' HR guidelines. One personal situation (of many): I approached my boss regarding inappropriate comments made to me by a coworker regarding my ethnicity. She brushed me off and told me "If you have a problem with it. Speak to her directly." For which I replied "If I do so, it will not be diplomatic. I'm telling you this b/c you are my boss and I feel that you deserve to know what is going on within your department between your workers." She smirked and reiterated her answer.
