Pros

If are self-driven and take initiatives as well as responsibility for your actions you will achieve great things here. You will have a space and support from top management for all valuable initiatives you always wanted to do in less innovative companies. EF Englishtown is truly entrepreneurial place, where everyone with an idea aligned to business goals can make it happen and become reality. That's what differentiate it from other companies I worked before.

Cons

EF Englishtown has a typical fast growing and start-up symptoms, where not everything is in place yet, but outlook for future looks very positive. If you can't deal with that and you are not ready to be agile, just leave.

Pros

Not a bad first job - most coworkers are fun and friendly, you have the ability to work in different countries, and seasonal bonuses are given based on student retention rates.

Cons

I wouldn't recommend choosing this as a long term career unless you plan on moving up in the company and away from teaching. Pay isn't great, there is little respect for teachers, and the management is clearly more motivated by sales than quality of education.
