Pros

The people- warm comfortable atmosphere. The product- Fantastic product covering all areas of education management. The ability to excel along a career path with regular reviews and meetings to make sure everyone is happy. Being able to work off site within schools and meet customers face to face I have worked at Parago for two years and it has gone extremely fast. Having started of in sales I was very quickly moved to support where my skill set was more suited. The people make the place , a lovely atmosphere and a great team with a lot of spirit. Everyone has a hardworking approach. The product itself is the best in the education management sector; with continuous developments over the past couple of years and more to come. I am sure Parago will continue its growth.

Cons

-More social out of work events would have been good. They are always fun but more of them would be nice. Maybe a monthly outing.

Pros

Just speaking from my own experiences, I made a big effort from the start of my time at the company to learn the product. Senior Management saw the time and passion I was putting in and I was rewarded for it - 3 promotions within 18 months including a drastic rise in pay and responsibilities. I have also seen a lot of people start in the base level role, and within 2 years start earning £70,000 per year regularly so the opportunities are certainly there. This is a company that I see myself staying at, due to the trust that has been given to me and the potential for further growth. Parago is now also in the US, and so the potential for movement and expansion across both offices has increased exponentially. There has been nearly a 100% increase in the customer base there in just the 6 months since the office was founded. A general trend I have seen on those that have left the company, has been a lacking of product knowledge or the right attitude. If you start with some passion, let that continue, and learn the product then you are unlikely to fail. The majority of employees have been at the company for 5 years or more.

Cons

There could be improvement in inter-departmental communication
