Pros

The potential to make decent pay. The potential to help people if you're honest.

Cons

Bait and switch. They lie about their compensation. They use happy hour and free lunch to keep employees happy. Micromanagement. Abuse from leadership. Very poor training. They encourage reps to work extremely long hours and weekends and then tell you you can't clock in when working from home. They give leads to people they like. If you're not part of the clique, good luck. They fire people for no reason. They set people up for failure. Huge turnaround. Very toxic environment. HR and leadership have a sick relationship. The employee manual is very vague and doesn't protect the employee.

Hello! Thank you for your feedback, and we are happy to clear up any misunderstandings from your time with Century Services. We offer a range of options depending on individual clients' needs. At times, all options may not be available due to our clients' eligibility as some options have requirements that must be met by the clients. Our team reviews what options are available and assists in answering any questions regarding each option, so our clients can make the best decision for themselves. We make it a point to offer transparent wages which is why our job postings include the compensation. For our Sales roles, it's also commission based. However, our Sales employees all share the same base salary. Their difference in compensation comes from their own ability to earn commission which is uncapped. Our Sales team works the following schedule: 9:30am - 7:30pm EST M-F with a wfh day on Friday. We encourage our team to work with their clients' schedules as needed which can sometimes result in a later evening or a weekend. However, they are not forced or expected to work outside of the listed schedule unless they want to. As Sales employees are salaried, they do not need to clock in or out as is the case with all of our other salaried employees. Our lead system is automated, and all employees are given warm leads. In any Sales environment, employees are given monthly production goals to achieve. Failure to continuously achieve those goals can result in termination. While we want to help our team succeed to the best of their ability and provide support from our management team to help them do so, our Sales employees are primarily responsible for their success in the role. While it is unfortunate that we've had to terminate a few employees in the last year, individuals from our Sales team rarely resign. When there are resignations, we are excited for their next steps. We understand that sometimes individuals will want to create a career at Century and other times, they are using us as a spring board for their next chapter. We appreciate any time that our employees give us as they are a pivotal part of our success and have added value to our team during their time with us. We hope that we have cleared up any potential misunderstandings, and we wish you the best in your future endeavors!

Long hours; No work-life balance; They underpay and overwork. They also give false advertising about their pay. It is less than they promise.

Pros

Pros once included: tight knit culture, growth & opportunities to make a difference.

Cons

The company direction changed drastically. On top of a dingy and tight office environment, management prioritizes nepotism, drama & shady ways in trying to increase revenue. This is not a fun or even a productive place of work. Carefully think through coming on with this firm.

Hello, Thank you for your feedback, and we are sincerely sorry to hear that your experience as a Client Support Representative did not meet the standards we have in place. There have been moments over the last couple of years within our organization where pivoting was necessary especially with a new unknown landscape where COVID-19 continues to be a factor. We try and make the best decisions that we can with the available information we have at hand. Nonetheless, we may fall short at times, and as a growing organization, these are some growing pains that will be addressed. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention, and we will share this feedback to our Management team to continue providing support to the team and develop them as best as we can. We wish you the best in your future endeavors!
