It could all be gone in a flash...

Pros

Flexible remote environment. Immediate supervisor was great the past few years, prior to that it was hit or miss.

Cons

Money trumps all. You could be the best employee but make more than a newbie and they will pick the newbie over you-every. single. time. They change TOO much-they never settle in to see if a strategy will actually work. They manipulate employee engagement surveys to make it look like people are happy/engaged. Overall, just a very fake caring attitude towards anyone that isn't at headquarters or the call center. You definitely will not be promoted or acknowledged if you do not work at either of those locations.

Pros

Depends on what business unit you are in, you can work from home 2/3 days of the week.

Cons

Poor management and general lack of direction; Low salaries with very little room for growth. Business units operate in silos. 5 years of decreasing revenues has deteriorated the culture and left a top heavy organization.

Pros

I have nothing positive to say about working at Kaplan.

Cons

Poor management, terrible pay structure, no opportunities to advance in your career. Kind of ironic for a company that provides test prep services for advanced degrees.
