The Federal Contractor minimum wage will rise to $17.75 on January 1, 2025. Pearson Vue test center employees are federal contractors. If you are making less than $17.75 your pay will increase. If you are making more than $17.75?
Federal contractor minimum wage $16.20
On January 1, 2023 the federal contractor minimum wage increases to $16.20. Has anyone said anything to you about hourly rates increasing for test center workers? Last year the test centers were considered federal contractors. Has this changed? I... — read more
Candidates
Does anyone else work in a center where the candidates are straight up as-----s? I don’t just mean stubbornness, I talking about insults to the staff and refusal to follow procedures. Is anyone else encountering this at the centers? They’re supposed... — read more
I am totally burned out
This is where I started to hate my job. This company really doesn't know when enough is enough. If it's in their interest to get employees to start leaving on their own then they are doing are great job. Is that perhaps their goal??? Some even... — read more
12 and 13 hour shifts
What's up with all of these long shifts at this company? This can't really be a great way to keep people engaged. And no lunch breaks of course!

While other company departments lost money, it was announced that assessments made money this quarter. Don't be fooled by the poverty wages you make. It's intentional and Vue could do better.
Pay Increase in November.
Will be interesting to see the November pay increase. Not expecting it to meet market rates. Any thoughts?
No greater vision
Layoffs or not, this company is poorly managed and I advise everyone who has talent to get out of here as soon as possible. There hasn't been any vision for a long time, and without a clear vision and good direction, nothing good can be expected.
Test Center Employees
Test administrators and others at testing centers are being paid through mid-April. Any word on what might happen after that? I'm wondering if they'll furlough most of them. It doesn't seem like these locations will be reopening soon.
Every man for himself
This sentence, pretty much explains the culture and mentality that are present at this company for a while.Almost all of my colleagues don’t like each other, and are basically actively trying to sabotage each other whenever the opportunity for that... — read more
You may as well leave on your own!
You may as well leave on your own as you will be overworked with no support needed to do the job done. We also have an internal game that we all play called 'how long can you last without getting any pay increases' - most people bail out after two... — read more
