Pros

management can be selectively helpful but only when forced very small handful of agents are caring

Cons

Where do I begin?.If I could a minus rating I would have. The entire recruitment process is a shambles to begin with. Interveiws et pushed back for months on end, you get told different start dates and hours. when you do start training is unorganised and often rushed. Very high staff turnover rate. Management talk to you like a child. HR and Managed services lack clear communication. HR has an arrogant attitude and bully you into agreeing with them, Staff are not recognised for their work even when quality scores show high performance. HR and managed services are liars and very secretive. Job role changes at last minute with no communication for this. HR refuse to take accountability when they break their own contractual agreements. Often asked to work outside contractual hours and penalised for it when you refuse. The refer a friend scheme is pointless because you often don't get paid for it. Bonus are rare. very low pay for the amount of knowledge and hours required. no real chance of progression. company plays favourites. Very gossipy and clicky environment. They ask for your input to improve the business and you get ignored. Body shamed by numerous management. Sexist work attitudes that get overlooked. Harassment claims get ignored. HR and managed services are fake and very sly in their attitudes and actions towards staff. They actively push you out the door if you don't say how high when they say jump. Change business hours and shift patterns last minute. All round bullies

Pros

Remote, Company provides equipment, No Weekends. Gain your experience and move on!

Cons

People with higher education do not succeed with this company. Peanut shells for pay (not the whole peanut) with expensive “benefits”. Very much ran on favoritism. Some leaders micro manage to the point of not wanting to clock in to a remote position, yet take zero initiative in training you at any time during your onboarding. Equipment is subpar. Beware of the HIPAA violations!!!!!

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are glad to know of your satisfaction with our company-provided equipment and the working schedule you were provided. Our Procurement and IT team work diligently to provide day-to-day kit delivery and set up support and though scheduling varies by role, we work hard to maintain a workflow that promotes a work life balance and personal wellness. We are sorry to hear of your dissatisfaction surrounding your benefits, pay, and leadership communication. Though we constantly review our benefits and pay structures to ensure that they meet market standards, we understand that not every offering will be satisfactory for all circumstances. We hope that you had a chance to review our free support options and wellness initiatives as our HR team is always available to advise regarding additional resources. We value your remarks regarding your leadership and training as we consistently review our working models to improve our employee onboarding and integration. Thank you again for your review. We wish you the best in your future endeavors.
