Pros

Teaching the students. The curriculum is good.

Cons

Implemented new payment structure that is causing pay-cuts to 3/4 of the teachers. Only cares about teachers who teach 2-300 (or more) classes a month. Represents this new pay structure as “helping all teachers”

Selfish and dishonest company!

Pros

There used to be so many great things, the company has taken a turn for the WORST. Charging parents more for courses and taking $$$ away from teachers with significant pay decreases!

Cons

Teachers are getting pay decreases, if you miss a class, you have to pay the company up to $10 for each class. They are purposely giving bookings to lower paid teachers. They are a very selfish company that does not value their teachers!

Pros

Work from home, flexible schedule, minimal lesson prep once you get used to the lesson styles and platform.

Cons

There's a lot of misinformation, and miscommunication. Company is dishonest about why certain changes occur. Instead of being truthful, teachers get the used car salesman speech, making it sound like everything is done for our benefit (including cutting $$). It's difficult to get support when truly needed. When something goes wrong, you really feel like it's you against the world with VIPKid. Company reserves the right to go back on it's word. Teachers are not valued, nor is loyalty. VIPKid used to be a wonderful, supportive place to work back when they were small. Now that they are a huge company, everyone is just a number (predictable I suppose) and it's more convenient for them to hire new teachers for lower $$ than keep veteran teachers who helped build them up in the first place.
