A lot of energy for comparatively little pay.

Pros

I don't think there were any real pros here. You send out dozens of requests and hardly any of it materializes into clients. WyzAnt takes such a huge cut out of your pay your efforts seem wasted.

Cons

It's very difficult to find students and very difficult to keep up with their parents' expectations. Many students I encountered were not academically prepared and were not in a good mindset to do academic work over a sustained period of time. I concede that I live in a more competitive location (NY Metropolitan area) where it's a seller's market. But I've corresponded with cheap parents who try to lowball tutors by paying cash off the site; parents who beg for year-long commitments upfront and then vanish with barely a trace. Worst of all, I had students who whined to their parents when they were meeting real challenges instead of persevering. I've seen some of these same parents get back on the site begging for help after I was fired, and their request went unanswered because the skill set I had was niche. The client I was able to keep was mostly fine, but WyzAnt took a whopping 40%, which made me feel like I was begging for chump change. I have a full-time job now, and I'm so glad I don't have to jump through all these hoops anymore.

Pros

Casual work environment . Office is nice and the product is something that is really important to continuing education .

Cons

Not diverse at all . Leadership is out of touch with staff and they seem to be cutting opportunity and saving on their employees . Lack of transparency in the company causes a loss of trust . The company seems to encourage temporary work and a revolving door.
