Pros

Benefits, Work from home

Cons

In my experience, agents are shuffled from supervisor to the other. Right when you get comfortable with your sup and your team, bam, they switch you to a completely new one. Some supervisors are laid back but there are some that will nit pick you to death. Customers are often angry and upset because Comcast, Xfinity Internet services are very expensive and rarely ever works right. I had cx's calling in who were paying over $200 but they couldn't even check their email at home. Also, if you have any type of life outside of work this job isn't for you. Scheduling isn't flexible at all and the worst part is there are MANDATORY extra hours which means you have no choice, you have to work the required extra hours or they count it as No Show. If you don't sign up for these extra hours they will sign you up themselves w/o even asking whether you'll be available. Another thing about this job is that the tools you need to provide quote, "World class customer service", never work properly. They freeze, they crash, they simply do not function properly IF at all.

Thank you for your feedback. We have many clients in our organization, all with technical support needs. Our employees are dealing with customers who have issues; whether that be on their personal computer or with services provided by our clients. This is a customer support role, which all candidates are informed of prior to accepting this role. As with most call center roles, there are times we need additional work hours from our employees. All employees have the opportunity to pick when they will work, and we do not ask for more than 8 hours in a work week of additional hours. You may add these in daily increments or all at one time, the choice is up to the employee - this requirement is occasional. Tool requirements in general are related to the individual equipment owned by the employee. We offer a reimbursement to all employees who use their own equipment, and often the employee may not update his/her equipment as requirements change. Internally we do not have equipment issues that affect our general population of employees - these are rare to non-existent. We wish you well in your new endeavors.
