Pros

An environment of smart, interesting people, interesting and fun work if you like teaching and are good at it, and tremendous opportunities for high compensation and management positions, if you're interested in the politics of that.

Cons

Like any corporation, stupid management and tail-wagging marketing get in the way of the most productive and enjoyable environment. Also, as a part-timer you have very few rights in terms of being sick, taking time off, etc., so it's sometimes quite stressful.

Pros

Remote and flexible. Good culture from higher up but team morale is down.

Cons

Turning more salesy than helping students. Too much focus on hitting budget.
