Pros

The ability to work with many hardworking individuals who care about making a difference. Great programs. The opportunity to sharpen your sales skills each time you get the chance to speak with a student. Casual work attire environment.

Cons

Zero flexibility. The hours are what they are. In order to get leads, you must work weekends. The distribution of the better leads is based on politics or favoritism. Morale is LOW. There is a good reason for that and it starts with the Management/Leadership. Senior management needs a major overhaul. Their leadership leaves something to be desired. A couple of the middle managers do a far superior job at effective communication and managing. They may want to rethink their hiring/firing practices. Rather than continue to hire with the hopes of retaining a few people from each training class, then work with those who are hard working and dedicated. In other words, train and coach them. Replace the training team.

Pros

Management is easy to work with, and flexible with balancing work/home life. Encourages you to ask questions and think outside of the box for solutions to challenges. They have a really fun program that allows all employees to recognize others for a job well done.

Cons

Communication with/from corporate office does not come across as cohesive.
