1. The company falsely advertises in its job description. You won't work 40 hours a week. On Indeed.com, they say it's a 40 hour work week. It's not. It's anywhere from 20 - 25 hours (depending on if you're an advanced math or primarily English tutor) during calm periods of the school year and 30 -35 hours during finals season, again depending on your specialty. 2. Upper management has poor communication with its employees, and this seems to be on purpose. They want to run the business with as little effort as possible, and aren't really interested in having its employees taking on efforts to expand the business in unique ways that may in the long-term prove to be beneficial. 3. They aren't interested in employee retention or longevity. They don't pay their tutors enough for them to work at Sage as a career. If you think you deserve significantly higher pay, upper management will disagree with you simply because there's a constant churn of incoming applications due to the fact that the job market is quite tough, meaning that there are many qualified recent college grads that are eager to be hired.
