Any information/input about working conditions for these guys, any location?

Their employment package looks good, but what's the reality - good, bad or somewhere in between?

Cheers

Did you try the search near the log in? It came up with 12 threads in the last couple years.

I just tried again.

It just looks like a bunch of job listings, but no reviews, comments or insight. Maybe that's good?

Cheers

Wrong search area. Use the search function that's right below the words: Job Discussion Forums--"The Internet's Meeting Place for ESL/EFL Students and Teachers from Around the World!" It's in the area where you log in and out.

Good money...good students....NO FAMILIES.

You are brought in on a "non-workng visa" and then get it renewed every six months with a trip to Bahrain.

One of the better paying gigs in KSA. Good opportunity to get in....do a couple of years and get out.

I just gave a current rundown on SESP in a new thread.

It is a place to be avoided for now - for your own safety.

It certainly would have been helpful it you had put on a link to your long post so that those with interest didn't have to search all the threads on this place to find the one that you are referring to...

*meow*

Here is a link: http://forums.eslcafe.com/job/viewtopic.php?t=115076

It should help for later. For now, I expected rightly so that people will find it near the top of the threads.

Thanks... I was thinking more of a few months from now and the issues you posted about won't have changed all that much. And since you went to all the trouble of a long update, you want to make sure that people can find it. Cool

^

You are entirely right, and I thank you for the suggestion. I will add the link to other SESP-referred to threads as well.

And it is also very certain that things will not change quickly. In fact, I am certain that they will not change until the Managing Director, "Dr. K" and the Human Resources Manager, "M" are desposed, and they are not quite ready to fall on their swords yet.

They think that they can buy their way out of this one, so are currently in process trying to throw money at people and sweep everything under the rug. Typical MO.

Not happening this time!
