Don't work here unless you have too

Pros

The people who have been there for a while, PR lifers, are very patient with training despite a constant revolving door of people leaving. Some of the students are lovely. Fairly casual office- no suits here!

Cons

Bureaucratic, hierarchical, extremely low pay, the executive director makes every single decision and so there's little autonomy or career development. I've seen the executive director yell and stomp his feet like a child in the middle of the office. 9 hour work day. They won't even pay for office tea or coffee. Employees have to pay for themselves during company get togethers. Christmas parties are sad events where we split pizza and pop. Only 2 weeks per year of paid vacation.

Pros

Many different opportunities to learn and grow, experience in a wide variety of operational and administrative skills and duties

Cons

Staff is WAY overworked, corporate regulations can be cumbersome and aren't actually helpful for the day to day operations of the company, management is intimidating and not plugged in to the needs of the staff

Pros

Really fun and exciting company to work for. Loved being able to help students with their test prep in order to get into their dream schools.

Cons

Because the company is small, there are not many chances to move up
