I gotta say that info is 100%. I stay in touch with some of the Chinese staff there ( I terminated my contract with them about six months ago) and it is the way it has always been. When I was there it was hell. I was threatened when I tried to leave. I had to pay them, fly home because they wouldn't give me a release and fly back. The worst year of my life. And all the dos could say is, 'that's China!' No, I still live and work in China. I have found a wonderful job too. That is not China, that is EF. EF has the worst reputation of any English training school in the world. It is the worst, because they make it that way. They treat their employees like money-making machines. I have never been treated so horribly, and never seen people treated that way in my life. Never seen anything like it. Stay away.
