Pros

-Great entry level position -Benefits are incredible -Lots of training and support -Teams and leaders who genuinely care about you as a person -An established company that still works and feels like a start up -Kitchen filled with snacks (All the La Criox your heart could desire)

Cons

-Not a ton of opportunities for internal growth. The opportunities that do come have fierce competition. -Support is not a very engaging job. Hard to maintain motivation long term. -Growth happened so quickly, it felt like there was no structure to support employees who are feeling burned out. Quickly changed from a place that I felt valued at to a typical call center that was more focused on numbers than relationships.
