Kontras
First of all, after scoring for the company for 2 years and 11 months, I received an email stating that they are decreasing the pay for TOEFL rafters from $18.54 per hour to $15 because they want to pay raters a “comparable” hour rate. This con goes with my second point... The job is provisional so once you put in your availability for the next month, you wait for 2-3 weeks before they can confirm your days. Most of the time, I’m only on the schedule for a only few days per month. Prime example, for January and February 2018 I submitted my availability to be M-F 8:30am-12:30pm everyday for the both months. When my schedule came back, they gave me 1/22/18 as the ONLY day for employment for the month of January and 2/5, 2/6, and 2/12 as the only days for February. Being that the “new” pay went into affect on 2/1/18, that meant in January, I would only bring home $68 after taxes! And in February I should have about $170! This is an insult for someone with a Masters Degree. Fortunately, I’m not the bread winner of the family. I have been actively seeking a new job for 1 1/2 years and once I get one, I will be resigning from ETS. The STRANGE thing is, if I’m not mistaken, the letter came out right as Republicans we’re passing their “tax plan” that was “supposed” to put more money into the pockets of almost all working Americans. This didn’t happen with ETS... they took what little I did have and kept it for themselves.
