Pros

Great students. Nothing else to add here.

Cons

No career growth opportunities at all. Never getting a salary increase, no matter how long you work there. It gets too boring and repetitive over time with zero motivation. Oh, and first-hand info - the recent positive revs are not realistic. No trainer will ever say there are career opportunities. One person said that working here is not for stagnant people - it made me laugh so hard.

There are several points in this review that we feel require clarification. The suggestion that positive reviews from current trainers are somehow unrealistic or not genuine is simply not accurate. Trainers have different experiences and review platforms exist precisely so people can share those differing perspectives. We also do not recognise the suggestion that there are "zero" opportunities for growth. While career progression is naturally more limited in a teaching contractor role than in a traditional corporate position, trainers do have access to development opportunities, coaching and, for top performers, merit-based pay increases. While your experience was clearly a negative one, we're pleased to hear that you had positive relationships with your learners and we wish you the best in the future.

Pros

You meet many interesting people around the world. The people who work for the company are friendly and helpful.

Cons

It's a fast-paced environment and can get very busy but that's not always a bad thing because it's never boring.

Pros

For a side hustle, maybe.

Cons

Toxic work environment, rules on the fly, no respect, arbitrary, shenanigans for not paying, changing payment methods in detriment of the trainers, negative work environment, completely unmotivating, never appreciate all the clients that appreciate a trainer, and politicize the teaching methodology to spread environmentalism and pro-big tech agenda ideals.

This review raises a number of serious accusations, and we feel it's important to respond to them directly. Suggestions that the company engages in "shenanigans" to avoid paying trainers, advances political agendas or dismisses people for being honest simply do not reflect reality. Transparency is one of our core values, and payment structures, incentives, and policies are communicated very clearly. We also reject the suggestion that trainers are not respected. Trainers are at the centre of what we do, and respectful, professional communication is something we expect from everyone in the organisation. While your overall view is clearly very negative, spending more than eight years with the company suggests there were aspects of the role that continued to work for you over a very long period of time. We wish you the best going forward.
