Pros

I applied for the job because of the flexible schedule (as long as you have 40 hours by Friday you're okay) and the pay, which is higher than a lot of call centers in the area. The recruiter actually talked me into taking the job because I'd never done sales before and I was really nervous about it. Im glad I took it! Ive learned so much. The management has been so encouraging and patient with me. They're all really nice (even the upper level and clients, who are always approachable) and will stop and help anybody, even if the employee is on another team. Managers create fun contests with prizes such as spiffs, lunches, ice cream, and even an iPad. My project is new and we've all become very close because we had to learn everything together. As far as people saying that they're liars...its a new project and there are going to be some inconsistencies until things solidify. I've also never been told to lie to the customers. Not sure where that came from. So if you're considering applying, go for it! For the most part, all of my coworkers seem happy to be there and any drama or bad attitudes get the boot immediately. The people who get fired are mainly the ones who either don't follow the rules (regularly not dialing, slacking off, breaking policy, etc) or expect an easy paycheck.

Cons

Not many, and the ones I have are minor and tolerable-hard to find a good parking spot, elevators are too slow, the cafe closes too early. Although my only serious gripe is that the system we use for leads is a pain in the @#$! One time the guy next me called the same lead at the same time that I did. Management is aware that's it's a quirky system and hopefully something gets fixed.

Pros

- It's very easy to get a job here. The interview process went pretty smoothly. - The training period was very nice. Everyone was very encouraging and the atmosphere was fun. They seemed to want you to succeed.

Cons

- Management promoted employees based on friendship, politics, and other immature reasons. - Management focused on all the wrong things and screwed up a lot of the big picture. - There's a lot of hypocrisy within the company. - They messed at least 1 thing on our payroll on a weekly basis. - Pay was very bad for what we had to put up with. - They switched our work schedules very often and unnecessarily - Employees were promised the stars and the moon, but most of it gets reneged when it comes time to deliver

Pros

45Min lunch thats it. Other than that the eye candy your girl coworkers provide you and management. Please note i said girls instead of women simple fact the older girls act childish with lack of manners and self respect .

Cons

Its sad to see a work environment that lacks professionalism, so mamy policy which are rarely followed , management skills can be compared that to a 3rd grader . Im sorry to say but the only way to get move up in cutler bay alorica is using your assests if you know what i mean . So many girls are sleeping or flirt with managers so they can be allowed more freedom even allowed to avoid talking calls , the way some girls dress looks like a stripper party and really management turns blind to it just becuse they like the eye candy , the work environment is horribly unsuitable for the pay , i mean there was even and explosion inside the facility and management screamed at employees to sit down and take call talk about the dangers , for a company it really lacks employee safety theres not even a fire exit route or plan and to top the cake your commission can never be accounted for youll be fortunate to even receive it . Once you make over a certain amount of salery theyll use anything to take it away . Oh and commision is refered to as bonuses in your check .
