Pros

Juni pays very well for employing instructors that or mostly college students or recent college grads. They also allow you to set a relatively flexible amount of hours and, in a way, create your own schedule. It is definitely a great remote opportunity for college aged students at well-regarded universities.

Cons

It really is not as flexible as it seems. They allow you to mark the times you are available to to teach, and then allow students to reschedule whenever they want as long as you have said you're available to teach at that time. So sometimes, I will get an email two days before a class notifying me that a student has rescheduled a class during a time that I had planned something else. You are supposed to put everything on your google calendar in order to prevent this. Planning to go to lunch with a friend? Better put it on the google calendar. Having a short meeting with a professor? Put it on the google calendar or else you might get a class scheduled during that time. They also only allow you to reschedule one class every 30 days. This is not realistic at all and not the same standard that students are held to. They want to have college students at top schools work for them, but they are not very conducive to the schedule changes that occur in college (classes, meetings, internships, etc.). Also, when you do have a scheduling issue, you are supposed to work it out directly with the parents (which is usually a nightmare because rescheduling their kid's class is not high on their priorities) or make a "Halp" ticket in Slack. Then these requests will go ignored for days until it is right before an affected class, and then they suddenly have to cancel it which looks bad for the instructor. It's good pay, but it's more difficult than a job with a set schedule in some ways. If you had to request a weekend off at a normal job, wouldn't be a problem, but at Juni, it seems to always be pretty difficult and frowned upon.
