English Testing Canada Employee Reviews

Great company to work. The culture, the colleagues and the management support you well. I hope one day there will be a full time job that they can offer here in New Brunswick, I will be the first in line to apply and seeing myself grow in this company. Fantastic indeed.

Favoritism everywhere.

Staff (Former Employee) - Edmonton, AB - 7 May 2022

Favoritism rampant. Inconsistent hours. Some staff very lazy and don't follow rules. Other staff are fantastic. Low pay for responsibility involved but a satisfying place to work. Really needs a realistic business plan and far less Favoritism. Good place to get extra money, but very very few hors sometimes. Unless you're in the in crowd.

Pros

Some fantastic coworkers.

Cons

Few hours and inconsistent scheduling.

Okay

Invigilator (Former Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 7 April 2022

Good part time job that pays well enough, but low hours so you will most likely need another job. Great for college students though. There is a low-key toxic culture there and management sometimes doesn’t mind yelling or gaslighting employees. Other than that, it’s okay.

Pros

Great pay and training

Cons

No job security, management

Great place to work

IELTS Invigilator (Current Employee) - Ottawa, ON - 10 July 2021

Very relaxed yet fast paced as you are on your feet for most of the shift. Not a hard job to do, it requires being very flexible and being able to think quickly on your feet to solve test taker issues/ equipment issues.

Pros

Quick to pick up

Cons

On feet for a long time

Great company that values employee's work-life balance

Client Services Representative (Current Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 25 June 2021

English Testing Canada has been a great company to work for. I really appreciate the emphasis on work-life balance. ETC strives to ensure staff are happy in their work life, and cultivates a positive work environment. ETC has a very diverse team, hiring people from all over the world! ETC recognizes and values when they have a good employee doing their best and will reward them with promotions and pay increases. Overall, I have really enjoyed my time working at ETC.

Pros

Flexible hours and an understanding management team

Cons

Not many fun team building exercises which I've enjoyed in previous jobs (though, this may be due to Covid)

Great team atmosphere.

Manager (Current Employee) - Calgary, AB - 27 May 2021

Our team is a supportive group, that work hard to perform serious, secure tasks in a warm, welcoming way. We appreciate one another and truly work as a team. I would not ask my team to perform a single task that I wouldn't personally be willing to do myself. We take our Covid-19 safety protocols very seriously. I know our team and our test takers appreciate that.

Pros

We provide an important service, great team atmosphere

Cons

we are too new to have developed many cons

Great coworkers and supervisor

Invigilator (Former Employee) - Windsor, ON - 28 April 2021

Supervisors are awesome and all the hi co-workers are friendly and helpful. Head office in Toronto is a totally different experience. They are disorganized and don’t respond to emails and can be rude.

Pros

Fun staff

Cons

Management and HR are frustrating

Not much you can get

Invigilator (Current Employee) - Toronto, ON - 24 September 2020

you think you’re supervising but you’re supervised by those supervisors every second. Coworkers are usually nice people, and it is the only good thing. It’s not worth sacrificing your Saturday or Sunday to make a tiny bit cash, go stay with your family and friends.

Pros

Good coworkers, early bird practice

Cons

Boring, poor leadership what a joke

ETC is the best place I've ever worked

Assistant (Current Employee) - Toronto, ON - 17 October 2019

I work at the ETC office and it is honestly the best place I've ever worked. The office culture is really friendly and while everyone is expected to stay busy and get work done, it's clear that management really cares about our well-being. Any time I've had a suggestion about how to get something done, it has been considered fairly. We have cool perks like monthly staff lunches and opportunities to get involved in the community.
