Pros

It was easy to get started and the pay was pretty good for online classes.

Cons

I found the lecture style lessons extremely boring since interaction with the students was minimal. I felt like students were often a bit confused about how the courses worked.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your employment with Achieve. We are pleased to hear you found our onboarding process easy and enjoyed our compensation program. Student interaction is an important part of the learning process. Our instructors have the opportunity to define a style of instruction to fit the needs of our customers and make the online learning process fun and enjoyable. Our live, virtual classroom provides the instructor with the ability to conversate and interact individually or in a group setting. Our goal is to provide up-to-date tools and resources to ensure each learner walks away prepared and ready to pass their exam. Many of our courses are topic-driven to allow the customer to start the course right away, during any session. We are always looking for areas of opportunity to improve our courses and value your feedback.

Pros

On Time Pay Shift Flexibility

Cons

Sudden, vague termination: I was let go abruptly with no warning or opportunity to address concerns, just a vague statement that I “wasn’t delivering what was expected. No career growth or performance management: Despite being in a bridge/supervisory role, I received no raises, no performance reviews, and no additional benefits. Underpaid compared to new hires: My hourly rate was 50% lower than what they were willing to pay a new candidate for the same role. Overwhelmed with responsibilities and no support: New tasks were added continuously, and when I communicated being overwhelmed, and difficulties with how information is shared/received that affected efficiency, absolutely nothing was done to help. Poor Communication Culture: Managers operate like freelance leaders, with no clear pathways, training, or support plans for staff. Feedback, performance reviews, and strategic guidance are often ignored or managers go completely silent. The result? Employees are replaced or sidelined instead of being supported. This isn’t just a vague observation, it’s something I personally experienced twice.
