EF (Education First) reviews

Since the mandatory 5 days a week started, overall culture has rapidly declined with many more burnouts and sick days. There is also no incentive to excel in your field, because the pay increase each year is only ever inflation (if you're lucky), no matter how good your performance is. I have seen this cause many people to do the bare minimum which can be frustrating. Salaries are also significantly below industry standard with no other benefits to compensate. They do an employee survey every year and suggestions to improve employee retention is always ignored.

South African teachers are undervalued with the starting rate for a full-time teacher being $3 per hour. Monthly incentives are deducted if you fall ill and take sick leave. Management is clueless and the working environment is toxic. Warnings are dished out for everything without prior consultation. The cherry on top is they expect you to maintain a 4.9/5 rating, which is virtually impossible and unwarranted ratings will not be reviewed for removal. You put in a lot of work for no reward.
