Pros

It's a place to get your year experience in for better opportunities with other companies

Cons

Procedure changes from day to day. One day you'll be told to follow the Knowledge base to the letter, the next you'll hear that it's "assumed" and interpreted to how you see it. No room for advancement or change, the business atmosphere is completely stale, promotions and raises are non-existent. Over the last year there have been at least 5 HDR1 positions that have opened up due to senior agents leaving for other companies. They promoted maybe two. They no longer hire directly, all new employees for the Leveraged desk are contracted in at $10-12 an hour. Offshift employees handle upward of 30 accounts while a first shift employee is in 3-4 accounts.

Pros

There are no pros working for this company

Cons

The problem is that these guys are slaves to Caterpillar. Caterpillar employees and contractors are demanding and having to fulfill even the most stupid request like setting up an Outlook email even though CAT uses Lotus Notes is mind boggling. In addition the upper management isn't helpful at all and all they do is tell you to look at the documents for certain problems. Terrible company, terrible management and they've fired new employees because they didn't meet their ridiculous standards

Pros

Covered, free parking, cafe on-site, good benefits package and supervisors work with us to improve, as well as, encouraging employees and understanding the issues.

Cons

Wish the pay was a little better. Just acquired almost $10K in student loans to finish education for certifications (which cost too much in the first place) and was hoping for at least 10K higher than the starting pay offered.
