Pros

Pay is higher than most ESL companies, good students, platform easy to use, great opportunity to work from home, no-penalty sick policy

Cons

If you take a look at the ME facebook page you can see that the way to get ahead in this company is to self promote through their facebook page, and to agree with the company no matter what you truly feel. The competition among the teachers is exhausting. For those of us who don't have the time to stay on facebook all day we are left behind. I personally know teachers who work MANY free hours to get noticed with the company; I'm not working for free. The way that they promote is frustrating. You are told that you need to improve on things to get promoted, but once you improve they only find more things for you to change....This isn't for everyone, though. Some of the lucky few get promoted right at 100 classes, while some go through the endless cycle of feedback meetings, changing and more feedback meetings. Students also have the ability to rate you 1 star for anything. Very difficult to contact someone from the company. Takes days to get responses, they have an office in Nashville but don't utilize it for teacher support, pay is usually incorrect or docked inappropriately
