Pros

There are not very many pros to list other than you can work online from home

Cons

Too many to list, but I will list the most important... -Special education laws are constantly being broken (i.e., over caseload, support staff not provided, support services not provided) -You are treated like a machine and not a living, breathing human being with feelings -No support from upper management (including the director) :/ In turn, it sets people up for failure -Teachers get blamed for things that go wrong when adequate support is not provided in the first place -Employees constantly being threatened with their jobs if they don't follow the expectations or address their concerns (If you speak up/give a suggestion, you get threatened with your job) -Low pay -NO BENEFITS -You are disrespected and degraded as a professional -Little to no time off (even have to work Saturdays; also there are no school breaks and you even have to work on holidays like New Year's Eve) -You will be expected to do the job of four people
