8 years experience working for the company - Home-based Online English Teacher TutorABC Employee Review

1. Low Pay: The pay has seen significant cuts over the years and is now well below industry standards, especially for qualified teachers with degrees and certifications. 2. Below Minimum Wage (UK): For UK-based teachers, the pay often fails to meet legal minimum wage requirements when factoring in prep time, feedback reports, and early classroom entry. 3. Unfair Penalties: Teachers face penalties for sick leave, vacations, or when the scheduling system doesn’t allocate enough classes—issues often beyond their control. 4. Unpaid Training and Standby Time: Teachers are required to spend unpaid time on training and standby sessions, which can be disruptive and unproductive. 5. Lack of Career Growth: Despite years of loyalty and experience, there is little to no opportunity for career advancement or pay increases. 6. Currency Conversion Issues: Payments in USD are a disadvantage for teachers in countries like the UK, where exchange rates negatively impact earnings. 7. Demotivating Policies: Strict policies, such as removing teachers from the system after illness or missing hours, create an unnecessarily stressful environment.
