Pros

You get a lot of responsibility from the beginning. Also, if you are willing to live with the low pay for a few years, Kaplan is good about offering promotions if you are willing to relocate. If you put in some time, you can build your resume.

Cons

As stated in the pros section, the pay is low and the hours are long. Also, the products are very expensive and can be challenging to sell.

Pros

Kaplan attractcs such a diverse, interesting, and committed group of people at all levels of the organization. You'll thoroughly enjoy the few professional development activities you get.

Cons

For being a training/education company there was almost no effective employee training, development, or performance appraisals. In addition to feeling like you're completely unprepared for the role, you soon find out that the job description (to Direct a Center) is actually a direct marketing role.
