- You can do it from home - It's easy

Minpunten

- I've been scoring with ETS for well over a decade. I've never received a raise. Not even a quarter. - That's not all, though! GRE, TOEFL and other exams that paid over $15 an hour when I started actually got a pay CUT. The GRE used to pay $21 an hour. They cut it down to $15 to "stay within industry standards." I dropped both those tests faster than a hot potato. Why do twice the effort if I'm making the same pay on easier exams? - When I started, we were paid in full for all scheduled hours if they cancelled a shift 24 hours before its scheduled start time. A few years back they slashed it to 50%. They used COVID as an excuse to slash it to zilch. -No room for growth. In 10+ years, I've seen SL positions open exactly three times and you have to pay your own travel expenses to train. ETS doesn't give a crap about its scorers. They just want warm bodies to score tests. They expect you have to a masters and experience, but want to pay you the same as Target and provide no benefits unless your state demands it.

Pluspunten

Support of immediate management and coworkers makes coming to work every day a pleasure.

Minpunten

Where to start... First, the employee performance evaluation process and methodology has changed from 1) performance vs your job description to 2) OKRs which were completely unattainable and meaningless at every level to 3) rocks and outcomes which again have very little to do with the day to day jobs of most employees. It seems the burden for goals and objectives and performance management has shifted from management to employees as they try to define a methodology that holds only doers responsible for the company's success. All this since Amit Sevak took over. Management manipulated the questions in a recent employee survey to force responses that made it look like there was improvement year over year. Of course, when you add a new President between the employees and the CEO peoples opinion of senior management is improved. Of course when you shift the focus to immediate management from senior management, the responses will be improved. Try issuing the exact same survey as the prior year and see how much "real" improvement there was in the numbers.
