Pros

Never a dull moment. It's great to interact with different types of people. Lots of room for advancement if you can handle the poor management.

Cons

Management runs company like a dictatorship. No accommodation to employee's personal lives. Long hours, not enough compensation for the amount of work lower-level employees do. On busy days when we are short staffed, management still does not come out to the floor to help relieve some pressure. Open on most federal holidays. Thanksgiving day, Christmas day, and New year's day are the only days they are closed.

Mixed bag - the pros can be great, but the cons can be terrible.

Pros

Important note: this review only covers employment at a collection center - the corporate office could be an entirely different story. At the time of this review (Q4 2014) CSL is in a phase of extreme growth. This translates to numerous opportunities for advancement, especially if you're open to relocation. Support structure at the regional level tends to consist of knowledgeable, compassionate managers.

Cons

As other reviews have mentioned, compensation is low across the board. Over the long term, this results in a lower-than-average caliber of employee, in terms of education, motivation, and raw talent. The job market may be bleak, but the real assets tend to find their way out to greener pastures eventually. Being such a huge company, the culture can feel a bit dry - to everyone but the people you interact with on a daily basis, you're no more than a cog with an ID#.
