Do not recommend working for AJ Tutoring long term

Test prep and academic tutor

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Fair amount of control over your own schedule, decent mentoring support and some support with materials for tutoring sessions

Cons

gatekeeping benefits (really difficult to get benefits even when working full time during school year because company has policy of averaging tutoring hours over entire calendar year and summer hours are always lower), infrequent and small salary increases, value of what employer takes from income (73% of hourly pay) does not equal value contributed to your professional development, company does not support tutors who are poorly treated by intense/abusive/bizarre silicon valley parents (refuses to allow tutors to stop working with a client when they are treated poorly by parents or student), are more interested in requiring you to tutor test preparation because of higher revenue for company even if test preparation is not your interest

Business Outlook

Pros

Excellent culture, very organized, a lot of materials, great training

Work evenings, work weekends, low pay because you lose so many hours during student vacations (I made less than $45,000 working 45-hour weeks), upward mobility feels limited

Good people, but poor pay

Tutor

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Everyone at AJ is collegial, and they have a good mentoring system in place to help new tutors master the material, if that's necessary.

Cons

They pay tutors less than 30% of the academic rate charged to parents and less than 25% of the test prep rate. Combined with the limited and irregular hours, it can be hard to pay basic bills. They seem utterly oblivious to how unfair this is.
