The cons outweigh the pros at TW. Big time.

Pros

Family dynamic tends to develop between teacher's aides. You can get really attached to some of the kids and your teacher/other aides.

Cons

Unbelievably low pay. When I got hired, $10.50 an hour was the starting pay for those WITH a college degree. Lots of aides got paid even LESS than that. I have no idea how so many aides support families on the crappy hourly wages TW pays. Long hours because you have to ride a morning or afternoon bus route along with working in a classroom. Routes can be as long as 4 hours so sometimes you don't get back to the school until 7 pm or you have to wake up super early to help pick up the students on the lengthy morning routes. Paycuts and furloughs weren't exactly rare when I worked there. The school is run like and even referred to as a company rather than a school.

Pros

if you like being treated like a tool its for you

Cons

This isn't a job you will be able to advance in, The administration is a joke and doesn't care about there employees at all. If you want to be stressed out over a job that shouldn't be that stressful then go ahead apply, Its low pay and your very unappreciated and a thankless job and the management plays favorites with the employees and will play games if you make them mad so that they have a reason to fire you. They lie on forms so you cant collect unemployment and work you swing shifts at part time during summer so you are stuck living on nothing
