Pros

With work at home, you get the benefit of not having to drive to work. I like working with my dog.

Cons

Upper management has NO concern/care for lower level employees. They say they care about the customer, but they don't. Micro managed, almost to the second. Don't talk too long or too short, don't go into after call, don't go over your break by a minute, all things to get you on a report. Company has gone from almost 500 people, to just over 100. It won't be there too much longer.

Lack of pay and pay increases are little to nothing that only happen once a year. Hard to move up.
