Pros

flexible schedule to work only where you want and work as little as you like decent pay for a side job (some test companies won't pay for prep) in addition to a 9-5 easy to leave and get rehired

Cons

getting hired and starting work took 6 months because of restructuring, i got overlooked not enough hours for those who want it management is incompetent, always seeking a scapegoat only focused on money, more than employee and customer experience no room for corporate advancement, though I was an internal candidate, they never got back to me

Pros

Flexible work hours, good hourly pay for teaching, a few part time benefits such as employee discounts and 401K contributions

Cons

The company continues to struggle with its approach to offering both an online product and in person instruction. Students willing to pay the additional cost for in person instruction seek more hands on help and are less independent than those more comfortable with online delivery yet the instructors have time constraints on the number of hours they can offer assistance outside of class, even via email. Online resources abound, however students have difficulty navigating the resources site.
