EF Indonesia - Native English Teacher English 1 Employee Review

• Management is not good • You are often forgotten and just viewed as unimportant by the people that pay you, so if you need anything from them other than a visa and monthly pay, good luck. • No benefits (BPJS health insurance stated in offer is not provided, additional monthly budget for housing costs is stated in contract yet not provided, questioning management on it is met with excuses saying how technically your benefits are given to you, when they're just not) • You'll teach at any company or local school anywhere in the city that pays your center to "rent a native", which often means you'll start early in the morning at that place and then come back to your center and have to teach the rest of your normal classes. • If you don't complain about not getting overtime pay you just won't get it. Likewise, if you don't complain about all of these off-location overtime jobs, they'll give them to you every time. • Paid vacation in the contract says 20 days, but you'll need to take 10 of that for Christmas/New Year and 5 more for Idul Fitri leaving you with a whole 5 days to travel because going anywhere during the holidays is borderline impossible. • If you need surgery or a procedure done, you're screwed, because you don't have ACTUAL health insurance. The employer will loan you the money then you'll be deducted every month until it's paid off. They way these franchises operate and deceive their employees (especially foreigners) is atrocious. It would NEVER fly in ANY western country. If you're a foreigner considering working here, prepare to be baffled.
