Pros

Depending on the program the call load can be very light. The job and calls themselves aren't very difficult. The company isn't going to collapse or go away any time soon.

Cons

Very bad dysfunctional management. Some of the lowest level supervisors are great but the mid and upper level management are very bad in that they never fix any of the systems, or programs, and then they use excessive micromanagement to try to make up for losses in time due to the systems being slow etc. Management doesn't listen or act on anything reported from the floor. They buy the cheapest phone systems and then blame the employees for lags or deficiencies that are out of the employees' control. You have to fight for work / life balance requests. Management sets standards such as QA, talk time etc. But when you meet or exceed those requirements they are never satisfied, and management never ever says "Great Job"" without having a "But, you could have done this or that." No positive reinforcement or leadership.

Pros

1. relatively aloof culture for ICs to grow on their own 2. on and off few people are good 3. Actually consultants in india are better than some full time hires to work with. The h1bs in full time roles and some GCs/Americans are just 1 step away from unemployment line but there are some good quality consultants who can be directed well to bring in good work. Problem is lack of direction when middle management is just running after money.

Cons

1. top most management is clueless to what is going post the middle tier 2. middle tiers - VPs/SVPs/Directors and Sr. Directors are among the worst. Mostly cast offs from Consulting firms/Tech cos/Other Healthcare firms, this group has some of the worst, clueless folks who just think very narrowly about how to get rid of problems, maybe craft a story for higher ups. Get rid of this layer ( so called people management ) and co. could shine better on the work of ICs, decent software engineers and regular rank and file. 3. Main money maker distribution is different from tech group and the IT here is almost comical - 2 years ago in 2024 there were "directors" bringing AI agents with 90% hallucination .. I mean that has got to be an industry first!
