Pros – They are reasonable to deal with

Cons – Pleasant however they expect a full days work as apart time contract and do not pay full travel allowances.

Advice to Senior Management – A full day is just that, and should be paid as a full day with the benefits owing

Current Employee – been working at IE International Institution full-time

Pros – IE's very organic company structure makes it fairly simple for employees to move around the institution between departments and areas when opportunities arise. There is also an undercurrent of entrepreneurial attitude which means that any employee can develop projects of their own interest within their positions if so inclined.

Cons – The very same organic company structure makes for a lot of operational inefficiencies that often hamper good initiatives and allow politics to play too much of a role. There is also very little support structure for employees, so it's basically what you make out of it. Also, most of the employees are former students which makes for a slightly "inbred" environment.

Advice to Senior Management – Seriously consider a deep restructuring of all areas of the school as it would allow for an improved internal professionalization of the internal services it offers and would be reflected in a improvement of external services as well.
