Pros

work from home, pay is ok, co-workers are pretty friendly and most supervisors are helpful, a little room for upward mobility

Cons

Work can be stressful and mundane at times. Have to be plugged in constantly (no wireless anything), AHT (3 minutes) is way too low for CS. EVERYTHING seems to count against you. What you hear in training vs what you actually deal with is a complete opposite. The extremely outdated technology breaks down more than it works. A LOT of micro-managing and no real consistency on protocols (quality will say one thing, your supervisor will say another and a coach will give a third). No real access to physical areas (finance, warehouse), no remote access for online support to handle login issues. I'll stop here.

Pros

Only pros - wfh and you get a nice discount

Cons

Everything else. Management/corporate have unrealistic kpis. You can only use the rr during your SCHEDULED break. You have to offer a sale to EVERY CALLER even if they are already upset. You can NOT hang up even if the customer is screaming/offending you. My manager once said I should’ve been more patient. Mind you the customer was already using foul language and belittling me. I POLITELY asked the customer to please refrain from using that kind of language. It continued and I told her I would have to release the call. Also you stop getting a raise after 2 years. You cap at $17/hr.
