Pros

Provides a visa to work in Japan

Cons

You make a minuscule amount compared to what company charges clients. Company is disorganized and owner is known to throw aggressive tantrums. Leadership removed him, but company continues to pretend touchy feely vibes, while maintaining ruthless in their path to attempt growth. I’m just there to maintain visa status. Otherwise, I’d leave

Pros

I received contact in about a week after submitting the app. Each interview stage was held within two weeks of the previous stage. The process was well organized and so was the onboarding after accepting their offer.

Cons

The overall interview process can be quite long due to number of interview stages required.

Pros

I really love the team. We have an incredible group of tutors, and the internal and management team is growing rapidly. Especially this past year with COVID and with some of the isolation that comes from working from home, I've been really grateful to work with this team at TA. They make me laugh and everyone is super motivated and excited to be here. It's also a great environment for people who want to make an immediate impact. We are still a small group (but definitely entering a growth stage), so you don't have the bureaucracy that comes with a lot of bigger companies. You can come in and see the impact that you're making right away.

Cons

The time difference can sometimes be tough because our remote team is growing, so we need to coordinate with people all over the world.
