Pros

Very flexible hours, able to to work from anywhere because it is all done through video chat. Decent salary for meaningful work you can do in your own time.

Cons

Communication can be challenging because there is no central office and everything is done through videochats, however, it is a fairly new company and working on better structure for internal communications/updates.

Pros

Flexible schedule for most part. Coworkers are all very nice and everyone there respects work- life boundaries. Supportive and collaborative coworkers as well.

Cons

Hours can be difficult at times. Working with lots of people in Asia- that’s the job though.

Pros

Good network of people and sources of information to help students in their applications to college

Cons

Horrible compensation. They'll tell you ahead of time that you'll make about $25-30/hr, but once you accounts for all the small tasks (checking email daily, responding to emails, double checking AI outputs), you'll end up making more like $10-12/hr. Apparently this has been going on for years, I'm seeing past reviews on here about this from 2020, so this company doesn't seem to care about their employees, making them sign a contract with 6 weeks notice to quit to basically trap them for a few months at an abysmal pay rate. They also seems to keep doing waves of hiring (I was brought in through a recruiter), so the pay is likely causing this frequent turnover, which is horrible for the students they're supposed to be supporting.
