- Opting out of the 48 hour working week agreement is pretty much necessary. You are asked to work hours outside of your contract and have calls diverted to you out of hours. - Salary is poor as is the commission scheme. If you do your sums, when you first start working for TeacherActive you will be paid below minimum wage. - You are heavily encouraged to hand out your personal mobile number to schools. You are not given a company phone or laptop and expected to dish your personal mobile number out to everyone under the sun. It even gets printed on your business cards! - Not allowed to take any holidays during the term time. Want to take your partner on a weekend away for their birthday? Forget it. Take an afternoon off for a funeral? You’ll have to take that unpaid. - ‘If your face fits’ culture. You hear about the same people constantly. If you aren’t part of the exclusive group then be prepared to just feel like a number. - Heavily focussed on profit and not a lot else. - Progression is very slow and a promotion doesn’t bring a great deal of financial reward. - Having to advertise for jobs that don’t exist.
