Pros

- Excellent benefits. - Amazing colleagues - EF attracts some really wonderful people. - Room to grow and develop, depending on your product/manager. - Opportunities to travel for work. - Core values and mission are great. - Very social office culture if you like that.

Cons

- Salary, especially for entry-level roles, is quite low, especially for big cities like Boston. - Every product is very different in their team culture, processes, structure, so make sure to look at the team you're working on not just the company as a whole. - There can be favoritism for the "superstars" or well-connected people, which can work either in your favor or against it if you rub someone the wrong way. - This industry has ups and downs, so job security can be precarious. - New 4-day in-office requirement is tricky - not very hybrid or remote friendly.

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.
