A friend of mine teaching at a G1230 Educational Institute school in Ilsan has told me that none of the teachers there got paid for the last pay period.

Management said they were going to get paid late. Apparently the company is having financial difficulties.

What's the situation at other G1230 schools? Getting paid on time?

Anyone know any information about how the company, G1230, is doing?

Does anyone have any experience with this company?

Cool

I expect we're going to hear a lot more of this in the coming months. That is what happened in the 1990s financial collapse...

sounds suspiciously like a Korean, username, language, just registered and all. Are you one of the managers? Laughing

Yes my experience with G1230 was positive as well. THey paid all money due.

I think people would be jumping all over this thread if they weren't paid by G1230 since they are one of the big academies.

This is a false alarm.

This seems to be a non story so the thread should just die.

I want to keep this thread alive so we can see more koreans-in-disguise posting about how reliable this hagwon is.

Hope everything works out, and everyone gets paid.

I'm sure the Korean boss would rather not have to resort to not paying teachers.

Sorry, Angel0917, but you are definitely NOT a native English speaker. You seem to be at an Intermediate level - not bad - but not good enough to be a teacher, and definitely not good enough to fool most of the posters here.

I'd say advanced level.

If only my Korean were that good.

The Korean Ph.D's at my university have been known to make more mistakes.
