Pros

Solve common problems and learn to be more efficient with time. Save website owners lots of time and frustration by providing the correct solutions efficiently.

Cons

Sometimes the expectations from customers is unrealistic. Restoring a site without backups outside of our restore window time frames. Repairing custom PHP files that built by another developer. These are out of scope requests that go far above and beyond the services provided. The product (Hosting ,Server, Builder) is operating as normal, but the coding is broken, we can explain what the error means and offer repair solutions. Repairing websites out side of the statement of support is unproductive from the company perspective, as it was not a fault or result of any actions here. Although giving someone free troubleshooting with syntax errors out side of scope is a benefit to the caller. It hurts both the employee (metrics, time, frustration) and the company (revenue, customer experience)

Pros

Great benefits, cool people (not including leadership)

Cons

- You'll be worked like a slave, told when you can take your breaks and lunches. - Boy's Club. If you're in it, you can get away with lying to customers, breaking company policy, and basically whatever you want. If you're not part of it, watch your back, you'll be hyper-scrutinized for every action you take. - Commissions are capped, so top performers are limited. - This is not a true sales job, you are taking inbound customer service calls and will be expected to do technical support and deal with escalated inbound customers. - Much of the job has been outsourced to a Business Partner Organization (BPO) in the Philippines. Because they aren't true GoDaddy employees, they are allowed to operate like the wild wild west. Lying to customers, selling them duplicate products, deleting things from their accounts and reselling them the same product. Basically a complete legal nightmare... but you aren't allowed to complain about it and you are expected to fix all the problems they create.
