Pros

The environment and culture are great! The people make it a fun place to work, and the sales experience you get is very helpful. They don't require any prior sales experience to apply and give you about 3 weeks of paid onboarding where they teach you their sales process, which I found very helpful. Overall, a great experience!

Cons

The pay wasnt out of this world, but for a summer internship, I think it was fine. You get a bonus if you hit your goal (number of bookings per summer) and $5 for every booking over goal. You could also work overtime and get paid $18 per hour of overtime.

Pros

You get to choose your tour and recruit the students you want to bring. The paid chaperone ratio is 6:1, so it is very manageable. The tours are great and the local experts are wonderful.

Cons

Company support is variable. There is high turnover and new consultants are very sales motivated and don't always get the nuances of your school or community group. I have had some WONDERFUL concusltants, but they have always been promoted before I get to work with them again.
