Pros

Travel--bottom line is the best perk of the job. Amazing benefits, fun getaways and in-office competition that drive success with awards too! A company that is pioneering the customer experience and evolving educational travel to be the international leader.

Cons

Finding the right fit for the job can be difficult and it makes the company appear to have high turnover. This has improved in the last two years. If you work hard, you'll do well but you have to work hard and that means putting in a lot of extra time. Not a 40 hr a week gig.

Pros

EF has an amazing culture, made possible by the people it finds. I work with some of the most exceptionally interesting people who share a love for travel, education, and just generally want to do great things and make a difference. It's a super flat company - so ideas are easily spread, things change quickly, and employees at all levels are given autonomy that you just don't get at other corporations or large companies. The experiences I've been able to have here have shaped me and allowed me to grow in ways i never would have expected, which has given me an entirely new direction in the way i view my career. There are innumerable opportunities to advance your career here - just get in and make a name for yourself.

Cons

The pay is relatively low for the importance of the work it feels like you are doing.

Pros

EF has great entry level positions for people right out of college, and you get to work with people your age with awesome travel benefits.

Cons

You are typically only able to make lateral moves, but there are a lot of great roles available.
