Thank you for your honest feedback. We are glad that you enjoyed our unparalleled scheduling flexibility, competitive pay model, and relaxed atmosphere. We are, however, sorry that you found the job itself boring, strenuous, and ultimately wouldn't recommend the job to others. We allow for and encourage taking 30-minute breaks as needed and we have a variety of equipment options now to help mitigate any bodily discomfort while typing. Each office has begun holding regular activities and events to counteract the monotony and lack of interaction that comes standard with production-based jobs.

Pros

The hours are somewhat flexible. You set your schedule and it repeats every week, but if you wanna change it you have to do it a week plus ahead of time and if you need to change it due to an emergency you have to ask permission and it will usually be denied unless a family member died.

Cons

Terrible Micro-management You have three minutes for a break or you're up for a half hour. Windowless room where you're not allowed to speak and you don't interact with anybody, just put on headphones and type what you hear. If you stop typing, you stop getting paid and will go "on break" so if you stop typing for more than a few minutes, you'll be there an extra half hour. The shift leaders don't really care about you and will be super condescending. The pay is terrible, absolutely terrible. The people are weirdly clique-ish, or creepy (especially if you are a girl), and like spreading drama.

Thank you for your honest feedback. We're very sorry to see that your experience working with us has left you with a negative view of the company. Let's discuss the issues you mentioned. - Scheduling: If employees are good about following scheduling policies, allowances can be made for emergencies if properly communicated. For late requests without documentation (doctor's note, etc), we also ask that the hours be made up within the week. - Management team: A lot of changes have been made in the management staff and structure in the different offices over the last few years, and we apologize for any issues you may have had with previous members of management. - Socialization: We realize that production-based jobs don't lend well to getting to know your co-workers, so each office has been putting a lot of work into giving employees more opportunity to interact and do fun activities together. - Pay: Our production-based compensation model is competitive for each office's location, and everyone has the same opportunity to earn up to $13/hour through hitting Enhanced Pay metrics. - Break policy: Each member of management has the ability to make exceptions to the break policy when appropriate and within reason.
