Pros

I have been working for this company for 10 years now. It is a company that I am truly proud to work for. The company is constantly expanding and upgrading it's services to be the best in the business. I get to see a side of the world that most don't. I have learners on every continent (except Antarctica) and have learned so much about the world through these experiences. I appreciate the flexible schedule, the ability to work at unconventional hours and accountability without being micromanaged.

Cons

1. You only get paid when you do a lesson (not when you're available)- which ebbs and flows during busy seasons, however due to global expansion efforts the slow seasons are to a minimum. But you are paid if the learner doesn't show up. 2.There are NO benefits. Your salary is your salary. No health, no PTO, no sick days. However, you are allowed to take off as much scheduled time off as you want (just without pay). Great for school aged moms, retirees and people who don't need the benefits.

Pros

1. You can make your own schedule anytime that suits you (there are learners around the world in different time zones). 2. You can WORK IN THE COMFORT OF YOUR OWN HOME-no office politics to deal with! 3. You don't have to pack a lunch as you can eat at home. 3. You don't have to commute to work . 3. You don't have to buy additional or special clothing for your job. 4. You 'meet' very interesting people that live in some very intriguing places-the 'regular weekly learners' start to become like friends. 5. You develop a sense of appreciation for the interesting world that we live in & it gives you a better 'global view'-I now look at world news a lot differently than I used to.

Cons

1. It can feel isolating to work at home because there is no physical social interaction. 2. You need to give a month's notice if you want a day off if you have already planned your schedule. 3. There are no bonuses-Christmas, birthday or anniversary (i.e. 5 yr, 10 yr, etc.). 4. There is no paid vacation time. 5. There is no medical health insurance offered by the company.
