Pros

job doesnt depend on the market, its the law to have this product! pay was ok, 31k a year. profit sharing was nice

Cons

turn over turn over turn over. if you are headed or thinking about customer service dont do it. pick something else or run. they hire a groups of 12 constantly because people are always quitting. for example: when I got hired there were 10 of us. now there are 2 only within 8 months of being hired. the group before me there is only 1 left. I'm on a team with my supervisor with 8 people now and the oldest tenured person has only been here 1.5 years and its hard to find someone besides a manager that has been there for over 2 years when it comes to customer service. I know some of you might be desperate, but please pick something else besides customer service. to give you an idea of what you will be doing on a day to day basis. come to work, get on the phones and dont ever get off the phones, and never take a break. phone calls non stop with no breaks in between phone calls. as soon as that phone call ends you are on the phone with the next customer. there is usually about 15 calls on hold. and you will do this for 8 hours 5 days a week. if you are working on something for a customer but not on the phone, management will come on you and tell you to stop and get back on the phones. another bad thing is that you will not get sat and sun off. u will get one week day off and either sat or sunday off. and no u cant have monday or friday off.

Pros

good pay, health benefits, when you walk out of the door you dont have to think about work (you do anyways), pick your own schedule ultimately, profit sharing.

Cons

youre just another number, literally one person among thousands, crooked dependability warnings if youre out sick, no trust in employees, constantly changing their unattainable goals, have to meet goals in order to advance, feels like working for the government, everyone who moves up seems like theyre brainwashed or something.. creepy. you have to let angry customers scream at you all day and arent supposed to say anything back to them and their surveys they send back determine your success, they think theyre doin it big bc they have a "weight room", theres 2 treadmills and a set of weights, you have to deal with hundreds of emails all day from H.R. who apparently need some more work to do.

Pros

Good benefits, profit sharing, vacation time isn't terrible

Cons

While they have a good training program for their employees, they fail to provide updated information to older employees, which leads for a lot of inconsistency. They also put their service employees under immense amounts of stress, and will fire you at the drop of a hat.
