Room for advancement, but competition is stiff.

I worked there for over 10 years. Was given many awards for doing a great job. I worked hard for the company and was let go, for helping out another employee. I worked from home, so an employee called me to explain to me what she needed help with. While on the phone, she also told me what her kids were up to. They fired us both for avoiding work, without any warnings. Mind you, I had never been on corrective action the whole time I worked there. Also, just a couple of months before this happened, my team leader encouraged me to talk more to my team. Come to find out later, they told my team members a different reason why they fired me. I take pride in my work and put in more than 100% effort. If you don't mind being graded on the words you use, your tone of voice (like you are on helium). and everything you say, then you will love this job. The turn over rate is high, so you are always afraid of loosing your job. I would never recommend this company to any one I care about.
