Pros

Current pay is ok but I and many others deserve a promotion and have been told promotions and substantial raises are out of the question.

Cons

In addition to the layoffs, many employees have left and their positions have not been back filled; so those of us who are still here are doing more work with no recognition or addition pay. Leadership doesn't care and keeps trying to cut budgets further and the CEO is constantly traveling doing useless PR, while those of us who do actually work are exhausted from burnout. If the CEO knows what actually happened at ETS, then he doesn't care. He is completely out of touch. Leadership/Management is a joke and full of people who seem to not know or do anything.

Pros

A remote job that is remote is the only pro.

Cons

Where to begin? The Toiec Program is the absolute WORST there is. I've scored for others, and this is the WORST. I can't stress that enough. -Poor Leadership. They micromanage you and then sit like vultures waiting for you to make what they call an "error". You can be doing well all day long, getting everything right, but they will invent a "wrong" just to provide their precious "feedback".  Then they swoop in and BEAT you with the verbal whip and tell you how you are so "wrong".  You will also have people from different levels (CSL & SL) giving "feedback" literally at the same time, and you will be forced to respond to both people. HUH? Who. Does. That? They will interrupt your scoring for their "feedback". They make you stop everything and respond. And then you MUST respond the way they TELL you to respond. Meaning they force you to say what they want to hear, which is that they are Right and you are a bad little boy/girl. Naughty. Specifically, they will say "What are your "thoughts"?  If you don't respond according to the script, you will be punished.    In what world would a college graduate who slaved for their education and credentials want to endure this daily disrespect? They are brutal, ruthless, & cruel.  I've worked many jobs and always received excellent feedback at every job that I've worked, yet at this one, they always force there to be something negative to say EVERY time I work for it. And I had been at this job for years, yet every time they would treat me like it was my very first day! INSANE They will send someone who has been doing this for a DECADE back to training daily. Huh? I still don't know my job after that long. Really? It's unreal, and they are without a clue. And I've actually gotten sick due to the incredibly stressful work conditions. But you definitely can't afford to be sick because there is absolutely no PTO or benefits. I also haven't been able to afford a vacation in almost 10 years due to the pathetic pay. Imagine what that will do to a person! Please RUN if you are ever offered this job!!! I can't stress that enough. I deeply regret the DAY I accepted this offer. It's been like burning in the pits of HELL in hot, burning Lava ALL DAY Long. Pure. torture. -You also have to take many, many tests all day long, back-to-back. And then tell your "leader" whether you "pass" or "fail" like a 5-year-old.  They also don't care if you'll need to test again in the next 5 minutes. They'll make you test for nothing. -And the job is just plain HARD. It's like being required to carry huge boulders up a steep mountain all day without a real break. (A 30-minute break is a joke for strenuous, nonstop mental labor.) You have to work literally every minute, or else they will swoop in and ask what's the problem. You are not allowed time to THINK. Which is what the job requires given the difficulty. This job was designed to burn out even the strongest among us. Please reconsider! After you are done with all this TORTURE you get to collect your pathetic wage, which NEVER increases yearly, not even by a penny. I had to work multiple jobs just to barely keep up with the bills. They will have you giving this job 305% while living under a bridge cause you can't afford the basics. Because they will not PAY A FAIR WAGE. I was grossly taken advantage of by this company. It has caused me MUCH grief, pain, and sorrow because of the endless abuse and cruel standards. Please RUN!!

Pros

This used to be a good place to work.benefits are still competitive

Cons

Leadership is KILLING this place. Shame on the Board of trustees for not taking care of business. New man “Eddie” is described by many as a tyrant. In less than a year, ETS will have all of their work outsourced and off shore. Super sad…
