Pros

It is Flexible. That is all

Cons

If you like micromanaging this is the place for you. You are nit picked and criticized on a daily basis from how you look to how you speak. They suggested " voice coaching" because they don't like my voice. I cant change that. They make up " industry standards" that do not actually exist in the real world and try to train you to follow these made up methods. Their pay is much lower then they advertise. You are not a teacher, you are an entertainer. Get ready to be a clown all day long. They also like to switch classes at the last second and then not pay you for cancellations. They stalk facebook and other sites looking for negative reviews of themselves and then delete them. They also fire those teachers. I have worked for 6 ESL companies and this one is be far the worst. I refuse to teach for them due to their insane policies. They lock you out of your account for any little thing they dont like ( Like not smiling for 2 seconds, breathing too heavy, coughing in class, etc).
