Pros
Working with the students is fantastic. They brightened my days and made all of the hard work worthwhile. I made genuine connections with so many of them and felt like I was making a difference - not only with their learning, but personally, too.
Cons
The position was called "part-time", but it was only part-time when it suited management. For several weeks I was scheduled for 40 hours, even though I was requesting fewer. I learned quickly that my time would not be respected, as I was regularly asked to stay late or come in early - day of. You are told it's your choice, but when you say no you get a passive-aggressive guilt trip from management. My supervisor was constantly contradicting himself and talking in circles about any concerns I had. It was so frustrating that I couldn't stay anymore. As much as I loved the work itself, and especially the clients, I wasn't paid nearly enough to be dealing with all of the shenanigans going on behind the scenes. So disappointing.
