Working in the RSD isn't horrible, but it's not great either.

Pros

Opportunity to shape young minds and educate them to be citizens of the world.

Cons

The district doesn't do a great job of communicating from the top-down. Human Resources practices in this district are inconsistent and seem arbitrary. There seems to be a greater degree of politics at work here than in other districts I have worked in.

Pay is ok, administration is lacking

Pros

Pay is ok, better than some surrounding districts.

Cons

I've worked here 6 years. There are some great administrators and then they are some who need to be reminded of what it's like to be human. Employees are just numbers...admins don't seem to care when they lose a good staff member. Morale is low.

Great place for training

Business Outlook

Pros

This is a great place to get trained to work somewhere else. Management actively supports staff being trained, though certifications are preferred over actual qualifications.

Cons

Interviews are more important than experience, and qualified people are often passed over due to poor interviews. Many interviews are done on a strict point system and, despite a candidate not being the best overall, they are selected due to winning on the balance.
