Pros

Sometimes has flexible hours. The longer you've been at the company the better, but your direct management will be the most important to have your back and give push back when necessary.

Cons

Lots and lots of cutting corners. Basic office workplace items such as chairs and water coolers are removed for maximizing of profit. Sales are heavily weighed, even though there is an incredible amount of pressure to beat an unfairly weighted "customer satisfaction" measurement system. Company looks for ways to make sales goals unattainable and therefor not pay out any bonuses or pay increases. Long time staff do not have any incentive to stay within the company. New hires are undertrained and often not the right fit for the company. Company touts to the employees in a derogatory manner about employee pay and by law provided benefits (i.e. health insurance) being "worth more" and therefor trying to shrug off potential hourly pay increases. Staff are overworked for salaries that are stagnant. Locations are understaffed, but by company standards, are "overstaffed". Company claims to be in line with industry standards for pay, health benefits, and others, but either provides no raise touting industry standard reasoning, or insulting pay increases that do not cover cost of living increases year to year or health insurance premium increases.

Pros

The pros are the benefits, the pay could be higher for all that you learn and have to go through for ten weeks. They offer tuition assistance and opportunity for upskilling and advancing in such little time and the remote flexibility is great too

Cons

Management sucks and of course they have their favorites and then they have the people they target like myself. They micromanage bad and are quick to give you an occurrence for nothing. Their systems are so slow and then they blame you for being five ten minutes late logging in. They want you to tell them when you get up to breathe, go to the bathroom and they push for you to take calls and know boatloads of info after on 3 weeks of training. What they don’t know is that I will sue for any wrong doings or discrimination and I keep records of everything
