Pros

Not many pros - some of the people are talented

Cons

Not a startup as they keep selling - very corporate environment. Management very controlling, told to do more hours. People are constantly leaving as their is no room for thoughts/ideas or career development. The culture they are trying to build is very false. Bonus scheme, what bonus, never seen one and don't suppose anyone has ever had one.

Great team, product and workflow. Awesome benefits as well

Really none at all. I can’t think of anything that stands out.

Pros

- The new management is very nice and understanding. - I've noticed that even when I provide all the necessary information when canceling a lesson, they still have to repeat steps, likely due to company policy. - The only reason I stay is because I absolutely love my students. - It can be challenging to find a job without a degree in the TEFL industry

Cons

-Asked for a raise, completely ignored me. -Very difficult to cancel lessons. -Don't know how well you're doing as a teacher so you're in constant "competition" with other teachers to keep your position. -I've heard that they can fire you without any notice or reason. -Changed policy that you can only do 25 hours per week
