Pros

It is flexible at the local level, but the overall management is not very experienced. It was also very disorganized.

Cons

The management was not very effective at would play a blame game quite a bit. Therefore, it was hard to move up and hit goals--which would change a lot.

Pros

Kaplan is great with allowing you to balance your personal and professional life.

Cons

Things are constantly changing. There are national calls on a weekly basis and seems like there are new objectives and goals every week. The compensation and promotion guidelines are "up in the air."

Pros

Average benefits and offers good pay for employees. Depending on the department, there might be opportunities to advance up and increase earnings.

Cons

Doesn't seem to value employees, has become too corporate for a college or university setting. Communication is clearly a problem from top management on down and vice versa.
