I liked a lot of my colleagues and there were some fun activities available for the staff.
Cons
A bafflingly badly run place. Managers are rude, entitled, scapegoat their summer staff and there is clearly a bullying issue. So much free overtime demanded from you, I felt totally misled by the interview.

You get to choose your tour and recruit the students you want to bring. The paid chaperone ratio is 6:1, so it is very manageable. The tours are great and the local experts are wonderful.
Cons
Company support is variable. There is high turnover and new consultants are very sales motivated and don't always get the nuances of your school or community group. I have had some WONDERFUL concusltants, but they have always been promoted before I get to work with them again.
