Pros

+ Serious emphasis on health and wellness. + Very simple tasks; if you can follow a script you can succeed. + Training team is very understanding and does their best to get you ready with what they're given. + Very thorough on their rules and regulations. + Provides as much as it can to make the employee comfortable (even though that isn't enough when you compare/contrast the workload - see Cons).

Cons

- Work/Life balance exists, but when you come to work you come to work and nothing more. - Usual call center culture; keep your nose to your keyboard and bring in the #'s. - 30 minute lunch breaks do not balance out the over-sized workload of ~150 cph. - Benefits are sub-par compared to the other companies in the area. - About 50-60% of employees still miss the former CEO. This one is very rarely found even on his own turf. - Overall seems to benefit those with a Bachelor's more than the call center usual. - Lots and lots of bread and circus tactics and entitlement ("we gave you the job and A, B & C"). - Supervisors seem generally disconnected from their employees and usually do not have the answers for menial questions (e.g. "what affects my cph? my att?). - High attrition leading to mass hiring leading to the usual problems that come with sudden growth (disorganization, lack of information).

Pros

The company's culture is inclusive, they are very good at soliciting feedback from employees, they utilize Clifton StrengthsFinder, they are trusting and empower employees to be at their best. They offer Tuition Reimbursement and have Mental Health programs and several other wellness programs that employees are encouraged to participate in. PSCU is consistently working on employee engagement programs and DEI initiatives. The organization is truly caring of their staff. Employees are recognized often for their good work.

Cons

There is a tendency toward a falsely positive façade in my division. There are many system related challenges in the Contact Center, which makes it challenging to train new employees. There are times when poor behavior is overlooked and seems not to be addressed appropriately, or it is inconsistent. Often there are team members that are not recognized for their efforts and others that are not held accountable. There are times when team members let others take the work they don't want to do, because it is not work that is highly recognized.
