Pros

It is the industry leader and the company has a firm hold on the competition. The benefits are pretty good. The people are bright and fun to work with. If you have an entrepreneurial spirit. and like having lots of autonomy and ownership, then you might love working at Kaplan.

Cons

12 hour days are part of the company culture and there's no overtime pay. Work-life balance is essentially non-existent, especially during the busy seasons. Field leadership is very important but is often very weak. This is not a M-F 9-5 type of job.
