Pros

Opportunity for smart people to get academic work in areas of low employment availability. Online teaching options which make it possible to live rurally or internationally and still teach. With only a Bachelor's degree you can teach math to college grads.

Cons

One of the most unethical, dishonest and disorganized companies I've ever worked for or worked with. You, as the teacher, are the face of this mess and have to deal with the students when Kaplan screws up. Their bottom line is money, and they will do anything to get it. The products are poor, but Kaplan gets by on its famous name and so cares little for actual outcomes, of either students or employees. It's difficult to teach the course knowing the product is bad.

Pros

Remote and flexible. Good culture from higher up but team morale is down.

Turning more salesy than helping students. Too much focus on hitting budget.
