Are there any ET survivors out there who completed their contracts AND received their bonuses and travel allowances? In other words, am I just spinning my wheels here or should I get out now if there is no pot of gold at the end of my contractual rainbow?

Yes, I received everything owed to me, but that was in 2004 (Taksim branch). I have no idea how things may have changed since.

I had to leave 7 months after I arrived, so I wasn't able to finish my 10 month contract but I still received a nice bonus package and I left in 2008.

I worked at ET from July 2007 to July 2008 and got both my bonus and travel reimbursement and got them on time.

Others that I've heard from have also gotten their bonus on time.

I'm thinking of applying for jobs at ET in the future. Were you able to get your work permit? Why are you thinking of leaving?

i received everything that was promised to me, and on time. i left because i received a job offer at istek that was more suited for me - ie - weekends off and finishing work at 430pm etc -
english time did not get me a work vise. i had to do border runs every three months to Bulgaria, which i looked forward to. Istek, on the other hand did get me a residents permit and a work visa.

I think they're reducing the bonuses for new teachers, closer to what they were a couple of ears ago...
