Pros

You're selling products which really help small businesses market themselves well, so it's nice to come to work at a place where one can believe in what they're bringing to market. Being a publicly-traded company also allows them to offer a pretty competitive benefits package.

Cons

Working for a publicly-traded company means all employees are subject to investor pressure. There is always external pressure to do more. When times are good, investors want to make even more money. When times are not good investors want to know why they're not seeing a return on their investment. The latter led to lots of internal pressure, especially on the employees in my department.

Pros

The only “pro” there, is the trip to Boston that we took to start the year off. THATS IT!

Cons

Whew—let me be honest. This is not a company I would recommend working for unless you truly don’t have other options. When I first started, things were manageable. However, that changed once I agreed to be cross-trained. I was told it would be optional to remain in retention or stay solely in billing, but that was not the case. Despite only signing an offer letter for a billing agent role, I was required to remain cross-trained without a real choice in the matter. Management was another major issue. Communication was poor, and support was inconsistent. When you’re on a call and need assistance, it can take 30 to 45 minutes to get a response—if you get one at all. That level of delay is unacceptable when you’re trying to assist customers in real time. There is also a heavy level of micromanagement, which makes an already stressful role even more difficult. Lastly, I want to address compensation. I met the criteria for a retention payout, but on my final day, I was told I would not receive it because I would no longer be employed during the payout month. This was never clearly communicated beforehand, and it felt like my work was used without fair compensation. Overall, my experience was disappointing due to lack of transparency, support, and follow-through.
