Pros

It was a job. I lasted 3 whole weeks before leaving. It was close to my home.

Cons

1. The facility was literally filthy: the break room and bathrooms were full of unemptied trash and disgustingly dirty. There was mold growing in the toilets. 2. We were not allowed to use the restroom unless a supervisor authorized it. When call volume was high, we couldn't go at all. I signed off once to pee after 2 hours of calls and was rudely reprimanded and threatened with firing. 3. I was the only white person in my training class of 25 people. I was forced to watch youtube episodes of "ghetto beat down" during class hours. The episodes they played all included white people being beat up by black people. I asked the instructor why this was appropriate and he just laughed. So did everyone else in the class, except one girl who also stated the videos did not belong in the classroom. She was a Christian and also found the videos deplorable. 4. The computer resources were garbage. The processors were old and slow and they would frequently lock up with multiple windows open. The monitors were so old you could barely read the print. When I addressed the issue to management, the supervisor laughed at me and said "make it work or leave" so I left. I couldn't read the screens to do my job.

Pros

Global company with contracts with many different high-profile companies. They definitely don't want to let go of people. Will try everything they can to try to get you on a position that will keep your pay if you switch contracts. I started working in an office and transitioned to a work from home position. They handled that transition for me very well, but I do feel lucky as many other employees had different experiences than me. Very inclusive team!

Cons

Fast pace environment that does not necessarily feel organized all the time. Even though I thrive in fast pace work, some contracts are managed better than others. Feels more like a temp agency than a proper workplace with so many contracts. If the company we are contracted with does not want our employees anymore, they can cut people at any time. This will trigger TP to transfer you to a new project/contract. Working in the office was quite the drama at the time. If you work in an office, best to focus on yourself and keep your head down to avoid drama.
