Pros

Free childcare for salary employees

Cons

There is not support from your supervisors. They also overload you with work that one person can not possibly do because they can not keep any employees. This is due to the lack of support, low pay (on top of that they just took away mileage reimbursement and want you to travel all over the city), and the oversize caseloads regardless of what they tell you when you first start. They also expect you to work more than 5 days a week and do not pay for any overtime if you are a salary employee.
