Pros

Experience with working with kids, hires easily

Cons

Bad amount of turnover (people quit or get fired, low pay, no support (managers don’t answer emails or phone calls promptly, if they ever do it’s too late), a teacher could simply hold a grudge against you even if you do your job properly and still file a complaint to ESS and they will literally take their word for it against yours even if the allegation never happened, unstable assignments, they will cancel morning of or worse (when you get there), benefits don’t work (a relative of mine used to work there even and you’re better off getting state Medicaid over the benefits they provide which don’t cover or are not taken or both).

Pros

Somewhat easy application and easy hiring. Can choose days to work and assignments available everyday. Good to get experience in schools if no education degree yet or deciding.

Cons

Same day or very short notice of assignments available (depending on location). Constantly checking app for work. Minimum wage for this important job.
