      Pros

      Nice office building and young vibrant coworkers

      Cons

      Super fake leadership more hung up on exterior impressions and brown-nosing skills than actually doing productive work. Bosses who take credit for work done by their subordinates while they pretend to be busy and look good.

      Hi, thanks for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear that you had such a negative experience. What you have shared about leadership is serious and not reflective of the environment we recognize at EF, therefore we really want to hear more. While it’s difficult to address your concerns fully without knowing the specific location, we believe strongly that hard work and results should always be recognized, and no one should advance in their career based on someone else’s efforts. If you’d like to share more about your experience, we’d appreciate the opportunity to learn about so we can address your specific concerns. Feel free to reach out to us at hr@ef.com. Wishing you all the best.

      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.
