Bon Day! Reviews

long work hours, monotone work

This company is run like a big corporation, which will stretch the consultants to maximize profits. What is presented in the job description and interview process differs from the actual day to day. The offices are open, communal desks under florescent lights in often windowless rooms. High employee turnover should be a clear indication of the merit of this position. I ended my contract early, and found multiple colleagues left shortly after me. Working hours are strictly monitored despite being required to work evenings and weekends to accommodate student schedules. It typical Chinese management style, which is rigid and full of internal politics. For example, when getting my medical check as part of the visa application process- I was required to submit a time off request within the company portal and have it approved by two different managers- just to leave for 2 hours for a required doctor's appointment. Many colleagues were handling 20, 25 even 30+ students which is impossible during peak season and caused problems in scheduling and uneven distribution of work.
