Pros
-My only reason for staying so long was how much I loved my coworkers and how much it would let them(and the students) down if I left(since it takes months to hire a replacement). I cannot insist more about how much the entire staff is a family and I was truly dedicated to my position. Everyone was well traveled and interested in learning about new cultures so we all connected easily. -Working for the school is a blast since you get to lead and participate in all of the activities. It was so much fun to get to rediscover San Francisco and share the amazing secrets of the city with students. -I have places to stay all over the world now. Really got to bond with so many awesome international folks. - In my role I did a lot of networking in the professional community and I am forever grateful for it. -The staff is very good at what they do, from the teachers to the admins to the housing and academic departments! The former School Director was one of the best bosses I have ever worked for!
Cons
The company makes absolutely no attempt to invest in their employees! No training(although learning for myself is one of my biggest professional accomplishments to date) Horribly underpaid before even taking all of the overtime into consideration. No PTO unless you are a full time salaried employee Being asked to lie to students because the company didn't have it together was awful esp when it came to housing.
