Working at Dallas Independent School District in Dallas, TX: 29 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Dallas, TX Area

"I've worked for DISD for two years now. I can tell you that, while the pay might sound good at first, the higher administration in DISD does not have the interest of teachers in their mind. What they are looking for is simply results and to make teachers miserable through all of the bureaucratic things that they require from us. If there was a way that I could go work at another district, I would take the job in a heartbeat."

"I have worked at Dallas ISD for 2 years now and am extremely grateful for the incredible amount of opportunities this school district provides its constituents. Having taught in several different school districts, I am amazed at DISD's ability to offer so many different programs to its students and create an environment of academic excellence."

"Great school district with great teachers working there!"

"I was a teacher for 15 years. It is difficult to capture such a decentralized organization with a few words. I greatly enjoyed my time as a teacher and have many memories of it."

"Dallas ISD is a great place to work in order to impact students, their families, and the communities they represent."

"It is OK; we will post at the school opening day."

"I liked working in DISD. I grew up in the district so it was good to give back."

"DISD is unbelievably political and difficult to navigate. Your coworkers may be great but be careful of leadership, especially in Central Staff. If you are a good employee, they may block you from transferring to better positions within the district."

"I've worked for Dallas ISD since August of 2016. While imperfect, as any school district is, I have found it to be a step ahead of many urban districts in the country. The focus on student achievement and college preparedness is high-quality, and the TEI system for evaluating and compensating teachers based on performance rather than seniority is something that other school districts will likely use in the future with success."

"company is really good to work with"

"I have worked with DISD for over nine years in a fulfilling job that has provided both challenges and the opportunity to have an impact on society."

"I’ve worked for Dallas ISD since August 2019, but I’ve been a teacher for the last 7 years and I believe it is time for a change and to apply my IT/CRM experience to move forward to the next stage of my professional life."

"it was good. I loved my job but due to restructuring , I lost my job"

"If you know anything about Dallas ISD you would know it is one of the most corrupt school districts in the country. Administration is not interested in teaching students, just interested in what it is for them. Recent headlines in the Dallas Morning News prove what I have learned."

"I've worked for Dallas ISD for 8 years, and it really depends on the school you work in on your working conditions. Some facilities are more up to date than others, and some school cultures are more positive than others."
