Pros

Flexible schedule, I was working 3 days a week and it was never an issue to switch which days those were if something came up

Cons

They lure you in with the idea of an almost immediate salary increase upon working a set number of hours, but they don't tell you exactly how your days will be spent. It was a group of multinational telemarketers. It would have been an easier transition into the job itself to know exactly how the days would be spent, and that it was largely isolating yourself to ensure that we would be making the right amount of complete calls as we had to check into our manager every day and let them know.

Pros

Good entry-level opportunity with exposure to fast-paced, client-facing work. The company hires driven, sociable individuals and can be a strong starting point for building communication, prioritization, and execution skills in a high-performance environment.

Cons

High turnover and inconsistent management quality significantly impact the employee experience. Success is heavily dependent on your team lead and manager, with limited recourse if you’re placed under ineffective leadership. In my experience, poor communication, lack of emotional intelligence, and unclear expectations from management made it difficult to succeed and negatively affected day-to-day productivity. Internal processes around performance management and PTO lacked transparency. I was placed on a PIP and terminated shortly after (within a week) in a way that felt abrupt and not aligned with prior communication, which was initially framed as a discussion around pending PTO. There were also delays in PTO approvals, and I experienced issues with compensation adjustments following a promotion that required follow-up to resolve.
