        Pros

        Kids are generally great, enthusiastic and funny. I had the huge luck to work with some amazing coworkers.

        Cons

        Worked for a franchise school, and in my opinion that's the worst. You'll be constantly moved from one school to another because of the constant teachers burnout. Classes are packed with kids, literally! 40-50 kids in 10 square meters it's something that I believe to be illegal but obviously the managers don't care, they only want new students, it's the only thing that matters to them. Students are treated like numbers, nobody cares about their real needs or their actual improvements and individual development, the only thing your managers will celebrate every month is that the numbers are increasing. Seasonal schools are the worst, forget about your lunch time, forget about being paid for overtime and forget about prep time, there will be kids to take care at all the time, with schools constantly understaffed. Prepare yourself to fight in order to get what is yours by right (salary increase, paid overtime, bonus) because even though all these things are clearly stated on your contract they will always try to use an excuse not to pay all those things.

            Pros

            The kids are fun and will brighten your day but can be a bit much if it is a big school. If you have nice co workers that you get along with and a nice school director you will be fine.

            Cons

            Not being able to use Japanese to teach kids concepts that can be easily explained in their native language if your level of Japanese is fitting. Could have easily explained something in 5 seconds that take 10x longer in English that they wont even understand. The curriculum does not include grammar so all the Kids speak broken English. You have to stand all day. Some teachers are try hards and want you to teach in their style and not allow you to develop your own. Basically, just hope that you get a good school with people you get along with. Can be stressful switching from the preschool to elementary in the middle of the day. Overall the job could be better could be worse.

              Pros

              The worst company ever~. treat you like a peasant. I worked for four years and received 2 gold stars for superior customer service and ended up with a foot surgery that ended up with a second one. Because the MRI was wrong.. completely out of my control. A horrible HR person with zero experience that was promoted from a CSR position terminated me after 4 months on medical leave and refused to put me in a sitting position. So I have applied several times and they deny my application . I have no idea what this person of incredible inexperience wrote on my termination .. but seriously...no loyalty. I loved. my job,

              Cons

              Hurtful employer with no loyalty. I do not recommend.. You are just their working peasant.

                      Do you experience that how long the hiring process would take at Thermo Fisher? I got my second interview with hiring manager at the beginning of November but I haven’t heard nothing from them. When I’ve emailed them to check in they just said that the process would be slow, no time frame. I would be able to get an offer soon from other company but work as contractor. Should I wait for Thermo Fisher?

                      Booz Allen Hamilton Recently applied and I've been referred for an interview! Any tips on interviewing with Booz Allen? And if I am being asked to complete clearance and background upfront, is this a good indicator for being hired?

                      Alex L.

                      Applied for a job a few weeks back, got a call from HR yesterday morning about an interview next week. She mentioned she'd shoot me an email with all the interview details, but so far, my inbox is empty. Assuming I'll hear from her early next week, is it normal for them to expect me to show up for an in-person interview on short notice, like couple days?
