Pros

Co-workers, 190 day contract (when there aren't any forced unpaid days "off")

Pros

Doesn't take out social security which equates to slightly higher pay (take-home pay still commensurate with other counties). Fulton was one of the counties better prepared for the recession, though still no raise after 2 years, and furlough days were deducted last academic year (not exclusive to Fulton however).

Cons

Poor organization! Central Office higher-ups in charge of too many departments. New employees left to "figure it out." Hiring process nerve-racking. Lack of respect for related services providers with advanced degrees (not exclusive to Fulton). A frustratingly amount of kowtowing to parents so as not to "rock the boat." Professional opinion disregarded (not exclusive to Fulton).

Pros

Fulton is one of the Metro County school systems that does not take social security so for some that is a pro.

Cons

There are too many constant changes to the expectations of the teachers. The county mandates more and more work but does not take away any unnecessary tasks.
