Pros

This is a company with an international outlook that is involved in all aspects of education in over 60 countries which gives its staff lots of opportunity to understand the business of education. The culture varies in different countries but overall it does support a good work life balance.

Cons

Whilst its a multi-national business. it's not yet fully integrated and staff may find it difficult to change roles. Innovation from within is not much encouraged.

Pros

Decent pay. Not much else.

Cons

No lunch break, no breaks in general, can’t go to the bathroom for hours on end, the managers’ daughter gets special treatment because her mother is in charge. Constant criticism and unfair treatment.
