Vantaggi

PLEASE bear with me for my long post. I hope you find it illuminating. - Nearly-unmatched flexibility since it's online - Decent availability while schools are in session - Paychecks are processed through a capable automated system so they arrive on time

Svantaggi

- The "mentors" and other managing staff do absolutely nothing to support tutors in terms of working towards a promotion - "Mentors" routinely berate tutors for going over arbitrary time limits (some students have access to unlimited minutes due to educational or corporate discounts) despite the fact that most students on the platform find longer lessons more effective - The pay is abhorrent; Tutor.com charges direct consumers $40/hour and tutors hardly see any of it - Nearly impossible to get a promotion in any form; over 400 sessions required with 4.5 star rating to achieve Level II — 300 more required for Level III amongst several other guidelines - Tutor.com will always side with the student; if a student complains about the tutor's methodologies, Tutor.com will swiftly chastise the tutor. I was told to stop avoiding the student's question in a session where the student was asking racially-charged questions with offensive answers - The "Tutor.com Classroom" application is poorly designed at best, and a nightmare at its worst; it is based on Internet Explorer and ages-old programming languages

Vantaggi

The students are usually nice. Work from home.

Svantaggi

There is no appreciation of employees. They give badges instead of raises. Don't be fooled by the $22 per hour posts. They do not pay that much for most tutoring. Most work is under $20/hr. The job that pays $22/hr is horrible according to most tutors. There is twice as much unpaid work involved compared with regular tutoring. This is not a job that pays a living wage. If you think you can stick out a low wage for a few years and then get a better wage from them, think again. They never give raises. The piddly 50 cents in January is not a raise. It is simply based on the minimum wage going up. It's an insult. If you think you can gain experience and then move on to another job think again. They don't give recommendations either. I hate working for this company. They have repeatedly tried (unsuccessfully) to get me to work without pay for things like training and meetings when they only pay min. wage even when they do pay. If they had their way, they would send all jobs to India, but their contract with the DOD is holding them back. This company is owned by the Chinese. Don't expect fair wages. I have to work more than 40 hours a week to get paid for 25 of them. Work-from-home jobs do not pay well, so keep that in mind when you are thinking about the benefits of working at home.
