Pros

You get to work with instructors and students and have a direct impact on improving business practices and instruction. The vast majority of the employees with KNA corporate really do care a about the instructors and students and are great to work with. The PTO is great too if you can take any of it.

Cons

Pay varies wildly and can be subpar. The same position can have over a $50k range with the same level of experience. The benefits are good, but there is no choice on insurance. There is no High Deductible w/ HSA plan option. The biggest complaint is that unless you are at HQ or willing to move to HQ then there is really no way to advance to a new position in this company. That means the turnover in this position is very high. Also, the company is pretty backwards in many IT practices and there are way too many outdated and redundant forms to fill out.

Pros

The tutoring center's hours were good for after-school and weekend hours as a high school student working there, and it provided decent tutoring experience

Cons

The pay was minimum wage for a relatively high volume of work, and the employers were often impatient and rude with both employees and students
