Pros

*Living in a new country *Friendly local and international staff *Training opportunities *Team building events *Fairly consistent work schedule *The job is EXCEPTIONALLY rewarding *A clear description of the path for promotions *The company splits the cost of health insurance

Cons

*Things can be very poorly organized sometimes. *The pay compared to other places is low but it is made up by having lots of teambuilding and free events for the staff *Not a con for me but for some, the hours are pretty late. You normally work from 10 or 11 am until 8:30 or 9:30 pm. *You get two days off a week but they are usually during the week. (Again, not a problem for me)

Pros

Above board onboarding (visa, insurance, housing support, socially, culturally) Opportunities to develop yourself (but needs intrinsic motivation) Huge support network (both across China and within your city) Constantly innovating and improving to keep ahead of the market trends Some excellent line managers Great company mission

Cons

Slightly strange schedule if you are used to your weekend being on the weekend. The constant evolution of materials and processes means you have to be able to adapt to change quickly. You might get unlucky with your center (particularly with regards to the franchise schools)
