Pros

No vacation shaming, no problem taking a few hours off here &there for misc things.

Cons

Using 18 different softwares to log the same information just in different systems. Bosses don't know how much you actually do in a day. Training is extremely long yet unproductive. You can't use your personal time, that's only for family emergencies. You have to use your vacation time. You are expected to go on &off que at exactly the right times. They grade your calls. You get perk points for your on que time being met, no missed calls, and logging every call. But you can't get any overtime without prior approval which you can't get so you better not get a call too close to being off or your in trouble one way or another. I had a system I couldn't use &even though I was meeting all my other goals since I couldn't log calls in that particular system for over a year I didn't get any accommodation or leeway and never got the perks for meeting all the goals, even though it was an I.T. issue and not my fault.

Pros

Huge office space and freedom to work independently in break rooms instead of being stuck at a desk. They have many opportunities for growth but the high paying roles are salaried and are paid once a month instead of biweekly. Overall a great company with good benefits

Cons

Lower pay than normal for the work

Pros

Stable company with strong financial backing and deep pockets. Solid commission opportunities once you build a strong client base. Certain regions and business groups are willing to invest in and support business growth.

Cons

Some regions are under constant pressure to cut costs, making it increasingly difficult to service customers effectively and grow the business. Management is often absent and lacks understanding of the day-to-day realities of running such a lean operation. Overall talent quality has been declining, and the management compensation and bonus structure frequently drives irrational decision-making.
