Pros

The mission of Kumon and to help franchisees with this mission is very rewarding. The basics of this job and when franchisees also believe in this mission and are passionate about the core tenets of Kumon can be fun.

Cons

Sometimes they use Japanese expats (with no management experience and have never worked with US franchisees) as branch managers to the detriment of the branch office. Less opportunities to travel, network with colleagues and to learn at the annual conference as they are cutting back on expenses. Unrealistic goals and expectations as the franchisor does very little to hold rogue franchisees accountable. Little to no advancement if you are working in the field.
