Pros

People work at EF because of the phenomenal perks that they provide employees - such as international travel, fun office environment, employee experience games. This is a great place to begin your professional employment, while you consider the best paths for your career.

Cons

This is a low-paying job and individuals don't get very much respect. Goals are intentionally set so that only 25%-35% of salespeople hit their goals. Management makes it known how easy it is for them to replace employees.

Pros

- Most of the people who work here are great. They're passionate about what they do and really believe in the mission. - Pre-covid all staff got to travel at least once a year - Nice office in Cambridge

Cons

- The pay is some of the lowest you'll find in the Boston area. They claim that's because the perks are so good but apart from the travel you can get the exact same perks and a way better salary at most other companies these days. - Extremely toxic culture - there's no legit HR department to take complaints to, and if you do try to talk to someone about manager or personnel concerns they're ignored. People are promoted based on how long they stay at the company, not based on merit, so this leads to a lot of inexperienced managers and a strange loyalty to the business complex. There's also very little room for growth unless you plan on staying at EF longterm for this reason. - Very little diversity - the lack of diversity at the company is very sad, it clearly has never been a focus and only started being addressed over the summer when pressure was put on the leaders to make more of an effort.
