Pros

New management teams are focused on building a transparent, supportive, family-style work culture to foster success. I applaud the level of transparency among departments and the willingness to work together to achieve goals. Great personal and professional development opportunities. Company is good at recognizing talent, and promoting from within. Every position is considered a stepping stone to something better. If you want to take on more responsibility and stand out, all you have to do is ask. Company is not just money hungry, we really do care about improving the student experience and improving education around the world.

Cons

The company pays on average less than its competitors and salary increases are hard to get without providing a competitive offer, even when raises are well deserved. Several recent internal reorgs have created a feeling of insecurity towards job retention. You may find yourself with more responsibilities than you signed on for and lacking adequate compensation.

Pros

Excellent balance when customers are on break. Being on a school schedule the Summer provides a great amount of time to get ahead with work and make up for the 100 hr weeks during the peak of the sales season. You truly get to make an impact on the US education system and students lives.

Cons

Direct Management has changed along with the industry. No longer are there the days of "Being your own CEO" and actually having control of how you handle your business. Excessive reporting and micromanagement is limiting the amount of success people have. You can still be successful and make an impact on the future of Students and educators, but you're going to do it the way your Manager wants, not the way you would like to.
