Pros

The campus is nice with covered parking, a great cafeteria that is better than most restaurants and a full gym. Benefits are pretty good too.

Cons

Very impersonal work place where you won't know many of your co-workers. Most of your days are spent in front of your computer taking calls. Cubicals are spead apart so you can't even get to know people sitting by you. No events like Christmas or holiday parties, which is really odd considering the campus has its own event center and on-site catering company. Managers are very impersonal and hardly even talk to workers. Managers claim to support career opportunities for workers but do not assist in applying or helping workers apply for internal positions. The individual support and regular one-on-one meetings dedicated to helping you apply for other jobs never happen. I have not had a one-on-one meeting with my manager in six months and we regularly go weeks without even speaking. Customers are often rude and your days are spent getting yelled at for mistakes you had nothing to do with.

Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. Employee engagement is important to us. We do hold associate events such as our summer celebration, and have other opportunities through our business resource groups, and volunteer events to connect with colleagues. Other concerns can be addressed by our human resources team, and you can reach out to AskMyHR for assistance.
