I saw a posting on this site for DD Dragon. The pay was good, 8000 yuan per month, and so I applied but - just in case they contact me back has anyone here worked for them before? Are they good?

The only thing that concerns me with DD Dragon is the fact that if something is too good to be true you must consider the possibility that it is not.

I've looked around. From what I have seen you can get either ideal working conditions, ideal location or ideal pay; if you are lucky mabey two of three.

Now with DD Dragon we have a job asking for no experience, in an ideal location (Shanghai and Zhejiang, the area of China I am most interested in working in) offering pay twice what the universities offer (and accomodations) and asking for near-immediate start of services including paid training sessions. About the only thing their add on this website doesn't offer is reimbursement of airfare but I'd gladly take an extra 36000 Yuan a year and have to cough up the 6000 Yuan for an airfare myself up front. All this and I haven't seen so much as ONE complaint about them!

I just wish I could find more jobs like this to apply for as I hate putting too many eggs in one basket.

I met up with them in Taiwan and they're extremely mercantile, dictatorial, exploitive, two-faced, and only out for themselves. Really bad experience, totally in with the school bosses. Charming at first, but will take no suggestions from the teachers as the web becomes taught.
