Pros

- Kathryn and her team were amazing to work with. The team has a lot of experience and is always available to advisors as we work with our clients. - The vetting process for clients is robust so you're only working with clients that actually want to put in the work. - Clients are also interviewing you as a potential match so once you've been chosen, you have confidence knowing that the client wants to work with you. - SOP has a 90%+ success rate and helps clients throughout the entire admissions process for business school. We will even advise applicants on writing their waitlist letters. - All of the clients are great to work with and it's so rewarding when your client gets into his or her dream bschool.

Cons

- Overall, working with clients is a lot of work so make sure that you can dedicate sufficient time to your work with SOP. During busy periods at my day job, I would find myself with less time to commit to SOP.

Pros

-Kathryn is just exceptional at what she does. Her feedback has allowed me to develop as an advisor, communicator and salesperson. I see these benefits in my "main" job as well. -Very meaningful work. I feel very appreciated by all my clients, who stay in touch for years. -Very fair and transparent compensation model, all while making a big difference in people's lives. -A lot of support for the peripheral elements of the partnership (admin, past samples material sharing, etc) that allows advisors to focus on their work and save time.

Cons

-You have to do well in a highly structured environment, embrace the Square One Prep process and receiving feedback and be detail-oriented -This is a fast-paced work environment where every day matters (especially with rush clients)

Pros

Management really cares about the quality of service they are providing. I learned a lot.

Cons

The founder, Kathryn, cares deeply about the company and her clients. Her heart is in the right place and she is very good at what she does, but she can be demanding of employees and a little too straightforward in her communication style.
