Pros

Local supervisory/management staff was first-class, from hiring to pay and day-to-day needs. Not sure how so few people managed hundreds of substitute teachers and do it well.

Cons

No cons w/ Kelly, just cons w/ being substitute teacher to students who treat you with disrespect. Not all of them but enough of them. The school system is taking back (taking over) the management of the substitute teachers in the school system (this is why I checked "getting worse" on the Business Outlook below). The school system needs to take the lessons learned and after action (LL/AAR) comments from the professionals who have been doing a great job for the last several years.

Pros

Flexible work schedule during the week and the ability to plan based on teachers putting in PTO and putting it on the calendar. The use of the computer to select dates of employment and to put in timecard information is intuitive. Having an app to look at when not at a computer to see job opportunities is also convenient. Communication from Kelly is awesome.

Cons

Schools not needing substitutes during the summer break. Not knowing what number Kelly is contacting me from for short notice opportunities.

Pros

Virtual, work from home position. The pay was great, the hours were great, they work with you and are very flexible, can always pick up shifts if you have under 40 hours, (you're scheduled 40 hours but if you miss a day that week) you can pick up another shift from the board

Cons

There aren't any cons that I can think of at this time.
