Pros

-stable salary -plenty of knowledgeable coworkers (non-management)

Cons

-NO MEAL BREAKS (legal in NJ but still very unethical) -Have to sign strict non-compete agreement with absurd restrictive covenant (google it) -Some students and families treat tutors like absolute dirt. Instead of firing the families, management will try to sweep it under the rug. -too cheap to hire proctors and admin, so you are routinely expected to be performing multiple duties at once -assigned mindless administrative tasks during seasonal slowdowns -CEO Ron + Management refuse to send workers home during inclement weather (blizzards + hurricanes) -Employees have to band together to take a sick day -CEO Ron conducted himself unprofessionally routinely, especially with regards to pay and benefits -Routinely booked for 8 to 9 hours straight without a break. The 40 hour work week may seem tempting in the job posting but trust me, it isn't. -Expected to provide your own technology (laptop, stylus, headset) for virtual tutoring. Company does not pay for it. -Printers break all the time. -High turnover rate (Hire Fast - Fire Fast) -Scolded for asking to use higher-quality third party test prep materials

Fine work, bad tutoring structure

Pros

Fine time to prep, laid back company culture

Cons

Days vary from comfortable to sometimes needing to eat during student teaching time (if you have the full schedule that day), management is lacking

Hard work for too little pay

Pros

Great coworkers, one manager, stable paycheck

Cons

Summertime tutoring work is 8 hours straight of teaching, no meal break guaranteed. Impossible to plan for sessions. Killer schedules. During school year, the schedule sucks because (despite adequate planning time) you are working during all of your friends/family's off hours so you never see them. No benefits to speak of.
