Pros

Great campus - some nice staff - interesting varied work and workplace

Cons

Pity about senior management team - focus very much on profit margins not ‘plus et en vous ‘ Trustees only from cream of society or have made it to top, and turn a blind eye to management personality failures. Kurt Hahn would turn in his grave. Expect to give your life to the great privilege of working at gordonstoun without necessarily any reward. If you fit in it’s all great, but if you don’t you could we’ll have a nervous break down (know of numerous staff members who left for this reason).

Pros

Fantastic Campus and a Good staff body. the expeditious and boats can be fun if you like that thing. the students come to form a wide variety of backgrounds as do the staff so it is one of the most diverse places in scotalnd.

Cons

Senior management will be the bane of your existence. you will work more hours than you are paid for. some students are nice but some have no need to work a day in their life and so are just immature and rude. there is very little support form senior management.
