Pros

Pays better than most other subbing companies in the suburbs

Cons

They don't offer training or tell you what to expect. They 1099 your taxes. They don't pay you on time or consistently - AND without explanation why or they blame it on you. They have you sign up online on an animated website and frequently, yo'll show up to the school, wait around for an hour or later for them to tell you that they don't need you (basically wasting your time/gas/etc). If you call delta, you get paid for half a day and go home - BUT ONLY IF THEY DO NOT FIND ANOTHER JOB FOR YOU TO DO. If they find you another job an hour or so later and you don't go, you don't get paid. So you have to drive to two places (normally no where near each other), in order to get 1 day of pay - which they should pay u a half day and a full day. They are unorganized and unprofessional.

Pros

Flexible scheduling that allows me to accept assignments based on availability. Opportunity to gain experience working with different age groups, classrooms, and learning environments. Strengthened adaptability and communication skills through working in fast-paced situations. Ability to build classroom management experience quickly. Exposure to students with diverse educational and behavioral needs. Helpful for developing professional confidence and experience in education and human services. Ability to network with schools and staff members across different districts and programs. Every day is different, which keeps the work engaging and helps prevent stagnation.

Cons

Scheduling and income can sometimes feel inconsistent depending on assignment availability. Entering unfamiliar classrooms can require quick adjustment and adaptability. Limited long-term connection with students compared to permanent teaching roles. Classroom expectations and support can vary widely between schools. Some assignments may involve high-stress environments or behavioral challenges with little preparation time. Benefits and stability may not feel as predictable as a full-time salaried position. Communication between schools, staff, and agency systems can occasionally be fragmented or last minute.
