Pros

Some of my co-workers within my center and within my region. I still stay in touch with a few of them.

Cons

All management above Ctr Directors say one thing but do the complete opposite. It's not what you do or how you do it but who you know. Tough to break into the ol boy network which thrives whether the ppl are competent or not. Its their way or the highway when it comes to doing ANYTHING They fall for the FLAVOR OF THE WEEK marketing approach. Unrealistic goals for established centers to feed the Washington Post $$ vacuum.

Pros

Kaplan attractcs such a diverse, interesting, and committed group of people at all levels of the organization. You'll thoroughly enjoy the few professional development activities you get.

Cons

For being a training/education company there was almost no effective employee training, development, or performance appraisals. In addition to feeling like you're completely unprepared for the role, you soon find out that the job description (to Direct a Center) is actually a direct marketing role.
