Pros
Medical/dental/vision insurance is excellent Many of the employees are some of the most dedicated, caring people you'll ever meet Working with students and seeing them grow and develop in their knowledge and confidence is so exciting, and working instructors and franchisees is very rewarding when you see major changes in a center. ****Note that there is a difference between KNA and Kumon centers; Kumon centers are individually opened and operated by franchisees and KNA is Kumon North America, the corporate center based in Teaneck, NJ which employs the KNA staff working at headquarters and branches throughout the U.S. Reviews & salaries from tutors or teaching assistants, etc. are probably working in a Kumon center as a grader or assistant for a franchisee, not through the corporate office.****
Cons
Been with the company for several years now and we have had several restructures, changes in management, changes in initiatives and priorities changes in presidency, layoffs, etc. so there is a large sense of instability as an employee. Recent restructure has led many staff to resigning and/or job searching. New management leads through causing employees to fear they will lose their jobs and/or have no raise/bonus if you speak up or question. A few different coworkers have recently said that the company's greatest asset is the poor job outlook/economy as employees are having trouble finding new jobs. Also, promotions typically go to outside hires - little to no career advancement opportunities, or if you do get promoted, there's a good chance you will end up demoted later.
