Pros

- Well mannered colleagues. Well, at least on the front they looked rather positive and cheerful. - Flexible working hours/days - Established company - Good IT facilities to conduct your lectures

Cons

The payment structure sucks. Throughout my 20 years of employment, I have never NOT known when is my payday. Lecturers will be paid 60% of their lecture fee within a month. Which day exactly? Well, nobody knows. The remaining 40% plus marking fees will be paid 2.5 months after the full submission of scores. The date exactly? Another mystery. It's really ridiculous! Besides, withholding 40% of the pay within a span of 4 months just doesn't make sense!

Pros

Remote and flexible. Good culture from higher up but team morale is down.

Cons

Turning more salesy than helping students. Too much focus on hitting budget.
