Pros

Ordinary workers all help each other--no back-stabbing

Cons

Totally random schedule. Far worse than the worst charter pilot job. Long, long days. Some overnight shifts. Numerous 04:00 shows. Rare to get two days in a row off. Salaries 30% lower than the competition. Many hours of prep. and paperwork--for which you receive no additional compensation. Too few people left carrying the load as employees bail in droves--more and more duties with less and less time off. Even new-hires soon look ancient. Ridiculous pace of work keeps you constantly hurrying. Management makes lots of promises it doesn't keep. Whoever posted "sweatshop" hit the nail on the head. I, too, wish I could give "zero-stars" ratings.

Pros

PTO, somewhat of a 'decent' salary

Cons

Management, both in the center & corporate. The work tasks are too demanding for the BS pay we get. The verbal abuse we get from pilots. Management has zero issue letting you know when you've done something wrong but if they do something wrong.. nothing happens? Oh I'm away from my computer for more than 15 minutes and now I'm getting scolded by not being on the phone? We can't speak freely. We have to watch what we say on the phone cause everything is recorded. The St. Louis location is a joke, with their petty front desk staff & gaslighting managers. The only people who are cool in the St Louis location are their PM's. This whole company needs a redo. Oh & if you're a biological female.. you're not safe if a transgender woman wants to use your bathroom.
