      Pros

      The people that work here are amazing. Good work/life balance and amazing opportunities to travel. If you land on a good team, interesting work

      Cons

      Pay is below market. Feels like it's lost some of it's previous charm and focus on people. Directives get passed in from above. Each team is ran as it's own silo, so hope you get onto a good one

      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.
