Pros

Paid on time and good meals every two weeks

Cons

A list of everything wrong with this school: 1. Badly managed. Both the kindergarten and elementary schools are badly run. 2. The working hours are ridiculously long. 3. Preference for slim figured white teachers over everyone else. The schedule given to male teachers is always easier. 4. Before leaving, I saw how the discrimination affected the non white teachers. 5. Abusive managers. 6. No guidance or instruction on how to do certain parts of the job. Avoid this school at all costs.

Pros

Staff special lunches and other incentives. Fantastic HR compared to other hagwons

Cons

Sometimes unrealistic expectations... such as especting you to know how to do something you have never been shown. Or unrealistic expectations from parents. Or being belittled by some head management
