      Pros

      Travel benefits 1-2x a year. most staff are friendly and open minded

      Cons

      Over the past few years, management has gotten extremely corporate with little regard for their employees virtually zero upward mobility unless you are friends with senior executives heavy drinking at parties leading to toxic behaviors very clearly profit driven regardless of consequences Has continuously stripped away benefits contributing to work life balance, starting with incredibly unfair WFH standards that are not equal across the company Clearly displays signs of distress and scrambling during recession periods

      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.
