Pros

Great benefits including lots of vacation time and travel opportunities, enjoyable work environment, lots of opportunities to try different positions.

Cons

It's hard to move up in your industry if you find a job that you like. EF in Boston is mainly a sales and customer service center so if you are an operational employee, you often feel like you are at the bottom of the totem pole.

Pros

* excellent benefit package - 3 weeks of vacation in first year, good Health insurance * Opportunities to travel abroad to experience the tours being sold * Learn to work on a team * Good first job

Cons

* Starting pay makes is well below Boston's median prices, and makes it difficult (if not impossible) to live alone. * Unless you are a particular nationality, there is no ability to move into a high level management position * Long hours with very little rewards to hard work * HR staff is hired internally and then moved into other departments once they no longer want to work in HR
