Best SES Company Experience; Not Particularly Professional - Captain Brain Hurricane Employee Review

Pros

Best training and philosophy (whole child style: emotional, physical, social aspects woven into lessons) of any SES tutoring company I've worked for thus far (two previous). Founders seem to genuinely care about improving the lives of students and young people; founder mentions story of when she was a teacher, saw student drawing a graveyard. One of the tombstones said "in memory of those who died waiting for the bell" and from that point onward she decided to change her teaching techniques and really try to touch students (figuratively) Tutors are given well packed "kits" full of teaching supplies Opportunity to become "Captain" and make $30/hr

Cons

I wasn't given work until about two months after I was hired and was not given an estimated time until work would begin--kept hoping I would get word the next day. They hire without interviewing you; they simply view your resume and take you on board, which seemed really sketchy at first.

Pros

-Good pay. -Philosophy and Curriculum. -Provides all curriculum and materials. -Great online training with a supplmental in person training. -Quick interview process balances with thorougg background checks and documentation. -All paperwork is done online, which makes it fast and easy to follow. -Management is professional, but not in the "corporate" sense of the word. They are polite, clear with direction, and have great communication. -Mindful of employee's time and makes sure not to waste it. -Very flexible schedule.

Cons

-A lot of paperwork is done online, so if you are not good with technology, then this might not be a good fit for you. -No work in the summer as a tutor, but they do have work in the summer as a recruiter.
