Pros

A lot of overtime opportunities. 401K. Health insurance benefits. If you’re an extrovert you’ll fit right in because everyone talks to you. There are alot of nice people

Cons

The calls are not good for your sanity or health. This place will literally drive you into a depression. They should have an on site therapist for the employees. There’s very little work life balance. They claim to be understanding about you needing time off, but they really don’t since it’s so easy for them to replace you. Turn over rate is very high. There’s also alot of favoritism and secret politics. Your work ethic doesn’t matter. You’ll only move up if you kiss up to the management. This place is basically for workaholics with no life who enjoy drama. Oh and they also lie to get people to the company. They promised that it would be a work at home opportunity (only reason I took the job) and then acted clueless when I brought it up later. They don’t really tell you exactly what your job is until you’re in the door. A lot of shadiness.

Pros

Team Culture Flexible Schedule (hybrid model) Entry level pay is great

Cons

The position that was presented during the hiring process was not the position that was ultimately delivered. Employees have very little influence over organizational decisions; the prevailing message is to either accept ongoing changes or move on. The company sets exceptionally high performance expectations but does not appear to fully recognize how constant organizational changes, limited job security, frequent separations and internal restructuring, and unmet commitments can directly impact employees' ability to succeed. These factors create significant obstacles to achieving the standards the company expects.
