Pros

I've been with EF for a while now and recently relocated to the Budapest office. The transition has been incredibly smooth, especially as an international expat. The support from the company throughout the relocation process was top-notch. So far, everything has been great. The team here is super helpful and collaborative. I’ve had the opportunity to work on a variety of projects and take on different responsibilities, which has really helped me grow professionally. The open office layout fosters a strong sense of community. There are no silos, and everyone is approachable and willing to help. Pros: - Exposure to a truly global company - Opportunities to collaborate across departments and roles - Supportive colleagues and a great team culture - Excellent office facilities and work environment - Smooth relocation process for expats

Cons

The work pace can be quite demanding at times. But that’s part of the EF spirit and what makes it exciting

Pros

Good training, good communication especially for a remote position, flexible, great management

Cons

Scheduling and staffing effectively could be challenging due to unpredictable nature of emergency response, which caused both understaffed shifts and overstaffed shifts. In addition, phone-based customer service can be emotionally challenging - customers in stressful situations can often be difficult to deal with.

Hearing that the training, communication, and management stood out, especially in a remote setting, is really meaningful. Thank you for sharing! As you mentioned, the nature of emergency response is inherently unpredictable. Our phone-based support in high stress situations can be central to defining the experience for travelers, and the people who handle it are a big part of that. We’re proud of the team you were part of and hope the skills you built here continue to serve you well.

Pros

You get to choose your tour and recruit the students you want to bring. The paid chaperone ratio is 6:1, so it is very manageable. The tours are great and the local experts are wonderful.

Cons

Company support is variable. There is high turnover and new consultants are very sales motivated and don't always get the nuances of your school or community group. I have had some WONDERFUL concusltants, but they have always been promoted before I get to work with them again.
