Stay in Line - Support Technician DRB Employee Review

great management and great PTO

Call volume can get a bit overwhelming

Great entry point into tech and a good place to develop technical troubleshooting and customer service skills. Benefits were relatively affordable compared to other companies I've worked for. Opportunities to work with multiple departments and gain exposure to different areas of the business. Ability to build relationships with customers and develop professional networking opportunities. Worked with many great coworkers who made the day-to-day experience enjoyable. Overtime opportunities were generally available for those who wanted them. Work from home opportunities.

Career paths to move up and out of the call center were definitely becoming more limited towards the end of my time there. When starting out, you quickly learn through trial and error who is willing to help you grow and who would rather make you feel bad for asking questions. There were some great supervisors to work with, but management quality could vary quite a bit. If one of the less helpful supervisors was the person you needed assistance from that day, you knew it was probably going to be a long shift. Communication between departments could be improved. Issues were sometimes transferred from higher up departments without sufficient ownership, creating additional work and frustration for frontline employees. Senior leadership seemed more focused on call metrics than the quality and complexity of troubleshooting required to resolve customer issues effectively. The overall work environment has gradually shifted toward a more corporate culture over time, compared to when I first started.
