Pros

Fairly flexible remote work opportunity

Cons

Poor management. Worked for this company for years. Saw multiple instances in which other team members left the company for unknown reasons and leadership forbade us from saying anything to the student. Students would be emailing a deactivated account, asking why the emails bounced back, and we were unable to give any explanation (in the middle of application season, no less). Employee turnover is very high, for good reason, as the pay is low for services provided with minimal room for advancement within the company. Very poor communication with staff members overall - it did not feel like a team environment and we were often left in the dark about policy changes from leadership.

Pros

- Seasonal nature of work makes some spring/summer months more manageable and lower workload - Building strong relationships with students over time can be very rewarding, especially seeing them succeed

Cons

- Often working well over 10h/day during peak of application cycle, expected to work over every weekend, restrictions on when you can take PTO, must do 2x work to make up for taking PTO, overall will try to squeeze as much work out of you as possible. Unfair salary for the amount of work expected with small yearly raises - Extreme "customer is always right" mindset. if clients complain you're expected to accommodate unreasonable requests

Pros

An excellent educational company. While it is, of course, a business that needs to generate profit, the leadership has always remained true to the core mission of being genuine educators. This commitment is especially rare and admirable in today’s competitive market, where many clients are solely focused on "paying their way" into elite schools. Thanks to these values, the overall team atmosphere is outstanding—everyone is highly supportive, especially among the full-time staff.

Cons

As the company grows, there’s an opportunity to further reward exceptional employees with more competitive benefits and compensation, which would align well with the company's strong values and supportive culture.
