Good Company

Pros

-Team is always available if you have concerns. Communication has gotten better the longer I have worked with them. Communication wasn't that great in the beginning. -Get a pay raise every year -PD Courses avaiable -Wellness and PD Stipends available -I believe they also have mileage reimbursement available if you travel far enough (I do not)

Cons

-no paid holidays -do not accrue PTO (only 5 sick days per year) -health coverage is pretty basic -No Summer placement (although I have tried every single year to get one) -Not always easy to move if this company does not have an outstanding contract with the school you want/posted a job listing. Have not had success when asking them to reach out to schools that I have seen postings that I am interested in

Pros

You have the option to get help or involved or be left alone. I like doing my own thing but there are great resources and I have a great CF mentor. What’s nice about being a vendor instead of working for a school is stepping stones makes you feel like you are a client. They take care of your needs and advocate for you.

Cons

Not much. My CF year has been good. Burnout in the schools is inevitable. Giant companies like this are never 100% great.
