Pros
Work from home opportunity which is harder to come by
Cons
They con you into 2 options for pay, either get paid a "higher" rate for a virtual position for direct hours only (basically amounts to 1/2 of what you should get paid when you account for self employment taxes and the time you are eating up not getting paid for all the indirect work ie. planning, documenting, doing IEP paperwork, progress reports) or you can take a lower pay rate for guaranteed hours where you are not paid if you work above those hours to complete any indirect work as above. The district I was at gave me a caseload that was unmanageable and I worked hours over what was "guaranteed" but wasn't paid for it. They don't have your best interest in mind in either scenario, it's about getting you to work for free.
