Pros

Good support from some members of management, good pay, rewarding to help students achieve their goals, good benefits.

Cons

Other managers not as supportive, they will take advantage of you if you let them, very corporate which can sometimes feel depersonalized.

Terrible experience

Pros

Really none to speak of.

Cons

I taught a class of about 20 people and was paid $20/hr. This is ridiculous - the students in the class were paying at least $25/hr (or collectively $500/hr), so I was getting less than 5% of the total. Kaplan exploits young people and pays them really crappy wages. Also, they don't even provide parking if you're teaching at a college. You have to pay out of pocket.

-Lots of human interaction. If you are a people person, this is the job for you. -Flexible hours. Great if you want to work part time and study, this job doesn't take a toll on you. -Great people to work with- All my colleagues were awesome and I had a very supporting supervisor

Cons

Really can't think of any. I honestly loved my work there.
