Pros

Great people, it's what kept things together for me, these people doesn't deserve to be exploited

Cons

They lock you in by hiring people outside their location for example the office hiring is said to be on CDO but you will be profiled to ortigas , they will force people to render 30 days work if you are no longer interested to work , cause of bad working conditions , ie tools not responsive and , VPNS not working They will impose a gate keeping 10k on basic salary but your assigned to an ortigas site , In reality your physically located somewhere else in the philippines , they will provide the equipment BUT they will ask you to bring the equipment over to their manila site , which makes you reluctant to resign cause there is no way you can afford a plane ticket to bring their stuff back without financially burdening yourself further, 10k a month for a 6k ticket just to bring their equipment back ? They wouldnt even organize courtesy pick up the same way they brought it back they would just sendout an automated demand letter ? Wtf They are not what they say they are , its a modern day slave labour, that they pay rent , Fyi i made more investment for their actionplans than their gains , i.e made sure the equipment have back up power , internet connection back up , lost hours without pay. Just to contribute to their ever growing endeavour of exploiting people, this is not the way. They even force me to log in while an earthquake is happening , i was so reluctant to log in as the household have cracks during the said quake , i saw that as valid emergency but management saw it as a valid threat to issue disciplinary action , how bout they log in during an earthquake or even a fire. Whats worse ? They offer overtimes WITH INCENTIVES , guys dont ever do overtime , you know why ? They pay for said overtime a month later and the said incentives ? ONLY SUBJECT FOR APPROVAL , maybe we can talk next yearif we can give it to you , Thats how they do things they pay rent for you to use their equipment on your home so you can man their lines. Pizza and soda doesn't work anymore Meager pay dorsnt work anymore

Pros

Loved the LXL management chain. Supportive, fun, progress-minded. The company as a whole was okay, but the department I was with made it amazing. Lots of opportunities to develop skills. Absolutely incredible visibility for diversity, which is celebrated and respected without hesitation.

Cons

Very high demand. Can be very challenging to learn how to balance work and breathing room without falling behind. Many other departments were quick to blame the LXL department in front of highly regarded stakeholders for failures that were not of our own. Pay also changes depending on the client you work with. My client was the highest paying client at the time I was employed. The LXLs working for the branch-off of work from my client were paid much more than I due to the intensity of the work. My pay was considered the cap for where I was, and getting a raise that was not just a few pennies was not going to happen. Moving up is possible but limited. Due to this company being a BPO, if the client no longer needs our work, we are liable to be laid off. Employees are not contracted, but TaskUs is contracted to the client. Layoffs are a possibility, be it near or far. I was laid off after 4 years and saw many waves of many sizes laid off while there.
