Business Outlook
Pros
Strived to create an empowering culture. Kaplan hires amazing teachers and delivers clear results for students. Many opportunities for employees to advance and grow.
Cons
Still too much ego-driven decision making - not enough listening. Also, overreactions and not enough common-sense in interpreting student surveys. Reviews are important but teachers bore too much responsibility for factors beyond their control. Also, "promotions" did not always equal pay increases. Teachers/faculty who didn't ask for raises (mostly women) were offered them.
