Regardless, you may also want to consider the support they give you and the hours worked as well at each place. Bumped into an American who had been doing Aeon there - said it was easy way to get into Japan with a job, but otherwise, the work hours are average and the support from the company as well. Basically, a cog in the machine type of job, don't expect too much from it, and a decent way to get you into Japan + working on the side = way to build up your savings and move on to other teaching positions with better companies that pay better. Didn't say it would kill to work at Aeon, so it's not a bad place either.
For better pay/better work centers, you may want to take a look at the Berlitz center near tokyo station, as well as Gabi japan. The latter toots high quality one-on-one instructions, all the top-end stuff you can throw at it, etc. Perhaps something to look at when you've got the experience and can move up. berlitz Tokyo Station? Just plain nice - very expensive rates = well paid teachers, and they get the job done with a can-do attitude. They're also more flexible about lessons, arrangements, etc. with the client than the two you mentioned, so it gives those wanting more flexibility in lesson planning all the leeway they'd like. (EG. client only wants to learn kanji? no problem. Just reading from one fictional book? no problem. self-paced and covering what he only wants? no problem.)
