Business outlook
Pros
Kaplan is full of young, smart and hard-working people. Because it is such a large company, there are lots of opportunities for movement between divisions so it's a great place for someone in his/her early to mid-20s. Also, because the company is focused on all levels of education (elementary through college), there's always something big happening that keeps things interesting.
Cons
The size of the company has its downsides as well - namely, that there people are Kaplan who have been there forever and seem to somehow be protected. Also, the workload tends to get overwhelming because the company always seems to be understaffed.
