      Decent company

      Pros

      They have a few professional development programs, you don't need to prepare your own lessons because they provide worksheets, they check in with the teachers each term.

      Cons

      There isn't even a 30 second break in between classes, unnecessary meetings, pay isn't amazing, students can cancel 24 hours before class and no other students can sign up , so you don't get paid. Summer months are slow.

      Not a great place to work

      Business outlook

      Pros

      ALA will sponsor non-EU teachers for work visas. I think they do this in part because those teachers will then have a hard time leaving, but nevertheless I am grateful they were willing. Facilities, supplies are decent.

      Cons

      One owner (you know which one) is a notoriously terrible man to work for: paranoid, petty, vindictive, riddled with delusions of grandeur. They pay late for no reason, insist you attend long, unpaid meetings on Sundays, make you grovel for high reviews from the students.
