Pros

*Passionate about the company's focused mission of spreading global education. *By far the most driven, intelligent, and fun colleagues I've had the pleasure to work with in my career. *Ideal for "Type A" individuals who are willing to work hard to make a difference with their customers. *Continued investment in technology and development. *Senior Leadership truly listens and cares about feedback from the field. *The company has a solid long-term vision for the transition the Higher Ed industry is experiencing. *Promotions and additional incentives are merit-based; work hard and you will be rewarded.

Cons

*Not a 9-to-5 job...but that's always a con. When you're passionate about what you do, you don't mind putting in extra time!

Pros

When a project goes according to plan you can work with some great people and make decent money.

Cons

Bad behavior is tolerated when you have a weak team member. They are allowed to remain on payroll, even if they do not effectively contribute. The burden is often placed on the team members willing to pick up the slack. Promotions are not given to the most qualified. They are randomly assigned. There are some horrible scoring directors as a result.
