Pros

This is overall a good job with the option to work remotely. The customers are great and if you support the second amendment you'll love this job. The benefits are good too.

Cons

Over the last year, there has been more competitors targeting Delta/USCCA pretty aggressively. Due to this, call volumes have skyrocketed and the customers who call in are no longer pleasant. What seems unfair is the phone representatives have metrics to meet which is of course reasonable to have goals, but they are continuing to raise them while not giving us a sure fire way to meet them. If we don't "Save" a member from cancelling it counts against us, yet everyone who wants to cancel is calling due to the allegations made against the company that the company doesn't directly address making it impossible for them to be "saved". On top of that, there is a separate department for "saving" members that get paid 4 dollars more an hour (this information is publicly available on the company website) yet we are still required to do their job because the company won't hire more people for their department. They have a hard job don't get me wrong, but they are getting compensated more to do it meanwhile we are doing their job on top of our job and not getting the compensation they do. How does that make sense?

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and being part of our IT team! It's rewarding to hear that our team members appreciate their growth opportunities! We make efforts to foster a culture where every employee can contribute and be supported. Secondly, the feedback about the challenges new engineering employees may face when trying to understand our architecture is noted. We know there is a lot to learn as a new hire. We try to simplify and support our newest IT Team members. In 2023, we hosted IT Week at our headquarters and had some team reorganizations to help remove barriers. We're committed to continuously improving our processes and communications to ensure that team members are supported and can get up to speed as quickly as possible. Keep sharing your thoughts, feedback, and ideas with your manager. They help us understand where we're doing well and where we can improve. Together, we can continue to build a culture of growth, opportunity, and mutual support.
