Prepare yourself for training class. 6 weeks paid, thank goodness. 15 programs to learn. Training class spends more time on non-sense about customer service (which many hired already have years of experience) rather than the actual difficulty of the Sabre and Amadeus complex PNR issues and how to fix it. I left an airline and air GDS can take years to master. No call center experience.... tough it out bro. Expectations change each week, it'll make your head spin and slow you down. After a year or more you'll be good. Take advice only from the leads. They are good but overwhelmed. Above all....It's a job, people! Its a call center with air conditioning, you aint digging ditches.

Things change frequently with the org structure - a reflection of the changing and challenging market, but also a 'no let up' approach from management. This, coupled with working with people all around the globe can lead to burn out if you're not careful - taking calls from ridiculously early in the morning to very late at night, just to be able to get that bit of information you're after in order to keep afloat in the job. Upper management may not look out for you on that score - so personal resilience is key in order to look out for yourself yet still manage to drive the results necessary in your role. There's an underlying feeling of 'don't expect to be able to move to part-time hours and expect to keep your career prospects' - could be particularly challenging if you are a new mum.
