Pros

job security, paid training and every one is there to help you when you need it. management is ok they dont really harp on you. being union is amazing you never have to worry what happens at work. all you have to do is worry about being at work on time.

Cons

very demanding mentally and when you have to be there you have to be there no question asked. management is mostly new off the street very few supervisors actually work there way through the ranks. its quite annoying when they are telling you what to do and they dont know what they are even saying.

Pros

- wfh - equipment provided - 2 raises a year

Cons

- very cliquey - OT is only 2 additional hours a day. nothing more - management prioritizes metrics over employees’ wellbeing - zero downtime in between calls. constantly back to back from beginning to end of shift - other depts do not hold their weight, which results in CSR’s having to do twice the work. can/will lead to burnout - union uwua local 1-2 does not advocate for members like they should. they are very cozy with con ed management. will be lackadaisical with member requests
