Worked at Ivyuan for over 1 year - Anonymous employee Ivyuan Employee Review

-Great coworkers -You're working with smart students -Good benefits and opportunities for growth

The nature of the work means that you have periods of the year during which you are very busy, but that is balanced out by periods of the year where you are able to focus on longer-term projects

- flexible working schedule on off-seasons, great for traveling - HR director is approachable, i felt like it was pretty easy to schedule time off - salary is not eye-popping but given the cost of living and the low taxes (basic package is 250-290k rmb for entry level consultants, which comes out to ~37k to ~43k USD, but tax is only like 10%, so it's like getting a 60 something k package in NY. i was able to live more comfortably than i did in the US while still paying off my student loans, even though i traveled often. - people were awesome - students were really fun, there were a few bad apples but most of them were cool kids - management was ok. i think they were just too busy to focus on each individual employee, but the senior staff were really helpful and nice

- i didn't really think of being in the position or in china long term, so i didn't get as many responsibilities as others, which meant i did more menial stuff. - like everybody says, application season gets busy so be prepared to work OT - sometimes you get a difficult student you have to work with, which is a grind
