Politicial Upper Management

Recommend
CEO approval
Business outlook

Pros

- Short working hours on weekends (10-3pm) - Training given before teaching - Open space to oversee everyone

Cons

- Upper management is political - Monthly meetings are not efficient - Low salary - Low retention rates of students due to high turnover of employees - Little staff benefits (e.g. AL and MC only, no centre closure) - Career growth depends on your relationship with the boss/centre manager, not on your capabilities - Overworked staff with admin work, little time to prepare for lessons or train on math skills - Constantly worrying about the enrollment of students, as the marketing isn't effective enough to attract students.

Worst Managing Director Ever

Recommend
CEO approval
Business outlook

Pros

The Students and nothing more.

Cons

Managing Director is not updated to Singapore’s curriculum. She micromanage every and single thing even how many times you go to the wash room and the duration. Calls on off day and off work hours and expect you to do work. Rude and disrespectful. Give unrealistic deadline and squeeze you dry. Toxic culture as the person in charge is the toxic one. She creates an unbearable environment to work in and only foreigners or people with no drive and real capable works there as they are stucked there.

Pros

Comparing to other tuition center, Mathnasium working hours not long, especially weekends. ( 9:30 AM - 3:30 PM?)

Cons

1. Very stressful working environment. One instructor facing at least two students (different levels) at same time, 4 students at most.. The instructor not only teaching but also need to do admin staff...(I feel this is the most annoying part...) 2. The manager is very demanding. The manager always say "you are not teaching, you just let students do the worksheets". But they just K2 or primary students, nothing much to teach, the most important thing is practicing worksheets.. isn't it? Math is like that.. 3. Poor management. - The staff only 15 mins to eat lunch - Always need to OT for admin stuff..... - I didn't receive my salary on time until I remind the manager and HR.. - The parent can just come in the classroom and scold the instructor..
