      Pros

      Better some work than no work.

      Cons

      I am in the Bay Area, so I am only reviewing schools in Oakland, Richmond and San Francisco. The school sites I was assigned were very very dangerous. Students were wild, disrespectful and very very behind academically. They contract with charter schools that are mostly robbing the government. Many, many of these schools struggle to find permanent teachers and it is a revolving door of substitutes teachers all the time for them. Therefore, the students area apathetic and simply don't care. Those are very difficult situations to put a substitute teacher in. The pay is very low, with some sub jobs paying as low as 19.00! Very few jobs pay a fair per hour wage. If they do, you are going to a very challenging site.

      Pros

      Flexible Lots of opportunities Many schools in my area

      Cons

      Just like the other review, I noticed that around march/ April they dropped the pay significantly?? Some requests are even below minimum wage and I’m confused why they’re even allowing that to happen. I just don’t understand what happened to them I did also have some negative run ins with staffing at some of the school and unfortunately swing will always take their side no matter what. I learned to just escalate the issues to the school district/ superintendents.
