Faculty Manager

Pros

Great Kaplan culture, helpful employees, Great work/life balance, a company that is always trying to improve, Smart co workers, etc.

Cons

Many say, faculty manager is one of the most difficult- thankless job within Kaplan testprep. The work is more than 40 hours/week without OT. Faculty managers are not paid enough for the work they are asked to do. Upper management needs to touch base with the small people to ensure everyone is doing their job. In a remote workforce, too much is left unsaid and can create issues within the work force.

Pros

Educating people, forming connections with my students (both are independent of the company, note)

Cons

Management made openly discriminatory remarks at times, and the worst offenses, TWICE went into the system to manipulate my hours so I didn't get paid the overtime I had earned.
