Pros

- You'll have a legitimate visa - Opportunities for growth if you stay with the company - Onboarding training - Cute kids

Cons

- Communication with recruiters before you leave for China is sparse and they usually don't respond to you - Sales oriented- Not a con in and of itself, however I was often instructed to mislead parents and tell them false information instead of doing what was best for students - Not many people stay with the company long term so many of the school managers aren't really qualified or good managers, they are just who stayed

Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate hearing from our staff and are constantly looking for areas we can improve on. We pride ourselves on our comprehensive training programs and the extensive development opportunities we provide to our teachers and staff. The nature of the EFL industry does provide a challenge in that people don't always stay for a long period of time. Promotion into an academic management role in EF, however, is very competitive, and all potential candidates must go through a rigorous internal interview in addition to holding advanced TEFL qualifications, and having a proven track record. We have a standardized salary scheme for both local and international teachers, and these take living expenses and other factors into consideration. We do not stand for discrimination of any kind, including unfair termination practices. Please contact us at compliance.china@ef.com so we can discuss the allegations outlined in your post.
