Pros
Yeah, from my experience, I can't think of one...
Bear in mind - this company is offering 'the chance' to win $100 in a raffle if the teachers who work here give good reviews. So, don't believe every good review you read about this horrible company!
Cons
First off, they claim a quick response time in reference to your application (1 week). This is the first lie, as it took nearly a month and multiple emails; some of which were never responded to. Then, during the interview, and after expressing my concern relating to the company I was currently working with, I was told that despite my concerns, I had nothing to worry about and that TutorABC was a much better choice and a good company to work for by the interviewer - stating that hours would not be a problem and that the pay was substantially better.
Let me just say, as I'm sure many of you can relate...It's not a good feeling to be lied to, to your face, and deceived in a manner of giving up a more stable job, based on someone's word. Thirdly, I had to wait a month before having my first class - one that pays a mere $12/hr. (I say an hour because the class was 45 minutes + 10 minutes early entry + an extra 5 minutes to do the reports...so yes, an hour for $12, despite how the company wants to spin it while the 25-minute classes pay $8...do the math and tell me if it adds up and aligns with the other base pay). Then, they spit on me more by giving me another single 45 min. class a few days later. I'm sure you can imagine how insulted and disrespected I felt at this point. So I reached out to the Teacher Community and asked for clarification as to why the rate of pay doesn't align with the 25-minute classes, only to have them delete my post and censor me without even bothering to message/email me addressing my concern, eventually banning me for yet again reaching out to the teacher community when they were unresponsive themselves.
This company is not credible, dependable, or honest. They lie to you, censor you, and treat you like a worm beneath their shoe. I have worked for many ESL companies over the years, and while each has its own faults, none have been as horrible as this company. Remember, if a company is paying their employees to leave good reviews, how can you possibly trust its credibility or the supposed 4 or 5-star reviews. Believe me when I say they are a terrible company to work for and you mean nothing to them. And for those of you who may question my review, ask yourself this..."Why would he take the time to write such a detailed review, if he was being dishonest...why wouldn't he write a short review and give a poor star if his intent was simply to discredit this company..?"
I am writing this review in hopes that you will heed my words and stay clear of this company so that you may avoid the pitfall that I fell into. Trust me, search elsewhere -- there are so many better ESL companies out there.
