Kontras
Lately I've been wondering when/if GRE Raters would receive a pay raise (it's been years). Lo and behold, ETS rang in the New Year with an email letting raters know that the hourly wage would decrease by nearly a third, and gave raters seven days to accept the change...or resign. Having worked for ETS for nearly 8 years in multiple capacities, I find this abrupt and belittling pay cut beyond outrageous. In addition to the plummet in pay, throughout the past year (2017) I often would receive just one shift a month, even during typically busy scoring seasons. Assured it had nothing to do with my performance, I suspected a glut of new hires, and now, with this sudden severe pay cut, I'm left to assume my suspicions were true.
