Pros

Pays on time regularly. Good training opportunities for staff new to teaching.

Cons

Some of the lowest pay in Vietnam and yet they have ridiculously high admin requirements. The HR department is slow and incompetent. The local vietnamese staff aren't trained properly, don't know how to take initiative, and don't learn from their mistakes, so that makes the teachers' job even harder. Apollo also cares more about making a profit and doing whatever the parent wants rather than the students' education and well-being.

Pros

Easy to get into if you're white or Filipino. The kids are more mature and speak better English than the administration!

Cons

Lower and lower pay because of online classes, not enough TAs, too much administrative work for no pay. They should be getting a bot for all this grading.

Pros

Offer continuing education and access to teaching resources

Cons

Terrible mismanagement of the COVID crisis, enjoyed making tone-deaf corporate videos that were supposed to encourage staff. Like most language centers in Vietnam, money is king at the end of the day and supersedes everything. About every week a new policy is enacted that you will be required to follow. Enjoy being threatened with write-ups and bonus reduction! Also, the pay at Apollo is far below the standard in Hanoi. They say it’s because of the benefits, but other reputable centers also have these benefits but pay more.
