Pros

Sadly cannot give a single pro

Cons

I was appalled at my experience of this company. I turned down roles as they highlighted it would likely be a full-time position. I spent a month training for them & then they gave me 2 shifts a week. They gave absolutely no feedback about how to improve the classes for future classes. Additionally, they will ask you 15 minutes before the class if you could start 20 minutes later and then end the last 20 minutes later (no change in pay). Most disappointing they just felt extremely unsupportive. You have to put all of you concerns in the chat with every other member of the board as well so you can't voice concerns without it being seen by everyone. I have never left a Glassdoor review before because I've had so many great experiences with teaching, but I feel as though people should be aware of how unethical this company is.

Pros

I have had the pleasure of teaching at Purple Ruler for the past 4 months, from my personal experience, I have had the support of management and any concerns I had were addressed promptly. I really enjoy teaching at Purple Ruler!

Cons

Sometimes maintaining a work life balance can be difficult.

Pros

None, I feel overworked and underpaid. Their management has dropped drastically. They judge everything you do and make sure that you’ll never get your bonus. The lessons are planned on ChatGPT and I spend way too much time editing slides because there is errors. I wouldn’t mind the abuse if they paid more

Cons

Exploitation at its finest. When I first joined it was bad but now it’s just unbearable. They’re always looking for teachers because everyone uses them for 2 months out of desperation.
