Pleasant but disorganized

Pros

Very amenable to employee's with special accommodation requests; Works with employee to maintain work/life balance; generally pleasant working environment; many opportunities for training

Cons

Some districts' training schedules are not finalized until the week of classes- if you're teaching you may not know until that day. Scheduling hours during tax season is very problematic; difficult to impose when you will be working (same as above). Hiring promises are not always kept- positions maybe be offered verbally and then rescinded at a later date.
