Vantaggi

Flexible hours. Tutor from home. A good paying job if you're looking to broaden your knowledge base, but I wouldn't recommend it for more than a year or two. Their obsession with having tutors break things down more does transfer to the real world when people don't understand things. I find breaking things down more helps better communicate my arguments, which I wouldn't have realized without the constant criticism from management.

Svantaggi

Mentors have a tendency to nitpick, to the point of absurdity. Will typically complain about "giving answers" yet what they really mean is providing steps, which is an argument you could always make because its always possible to break things down more, but should I really have to break down why 2+2=4? I view it more as a funnel to prevent people from being promoted, so my suggestion would be to ignore it because you'll have to fight a fairly hard battle to get promoted to tutor 2 status.

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.
