Pros

Advancement opportunities are EVERYWHERE. Discover really does value the experience that's gained from being on the job. The Benefits are ok. Oh, and the pay sucks, I started at 11.50/hr. American Express, just down the street starts at 16.00 /hr. for the same job.

Cons

The metrics that are used to measure performance, "iShine," is the most ridiculous means for measuring how well you are doing. As a CSR you probably take around 3000 calls a month and 5 random calls are chosen and scored - this is what raises are based on, not to mention if you do not meet a certain score you will eventually be fired. It was the most stressful part of the job for a lot of us.
