Business outlook
Pros
-Great support from management as you navigate the public school system and teaching in general. -Great pride in work you do. -Excellent opportunities if and when you decide to leave the Corps at TFA and elsewhere. -Great training and development in first year.
Cons
-Very, very long hours. -Lower pay than your equally-educated, fewer-hours-working friends. -Sometimes poor working conditions (under-served, run-down schools). -Bad school leaders (Principals, etc.) to deal with who should be cycled out of the system.
