      Pros

      Large company with a number of areas to advance your career. Good benefits including defined benefit pension. Good people to work with. Availability to interact with senior management on a regular basis.

      Cons

      Salary targets at lower end of spectrum for comparable jobs at other companies. Too many vice presidents at this company. Just doing what is needed to get by is rewarded far too much and going above and beyond not rewarded enough at this company.

      Pros

      Great opportunity to start a career. You can legitamitely move throughout the company starting with this role.

      Cons

      Bad contact center environment. Back to back calls every day. They only discuss call times and never what leads to the numbers.
