Entering the coal mine.

Pros

schedule flexibility... that's about it.

Cons

Utter lack of respect for employees. No paid anything... sick days, vacation, toilet breaks, "guidance sessions". Employees are not paid at all unless they are on the phone. Feedback is requested and then completely ignored... standing up for employee fairness is punished. The fact that you could be fired for making a single error hangs over you...pizza's and tootsie-rolls, and Hersey kisses do not mitigate the tacit knowledge that, at any time, you could be terminated. Employee engagement is just a string of consonants and vowels. They sell a product to which they themselves don't subscribe. Simple fairness is a foreign concept. Interviewing is not easy. Opening the front door, the pay, treatment, lack of honest respect, and the daily grind make you feel like you are entering a coal-mine... cogs in wheels... Gallup is a company that lacks humanity

Pros

(prior) brand, (prior) reputation, science/scientists, (prior) committed and talented co-workers, (prior) high ideals, marriage of 2 titans in social research (George Gallup & Don Clifton), (prior) well-meaning and principled, (prior) hard-working meritocracy.

Cons

Everywhere above where it says (prior), you currently have 180 degrees from that, over the last decade. The fall has been precipitous and breathtakingly fast. Though, given company "leadership", not at all unpredictable. Systematically driving off top/most-experienced talent until they're all replaced with younger, less-tenured (read: less expensive) plug-in talent gets you...well, precisely what you've got now. Creating a culture of fear and command and control, from a place of paranoia and myopia, gets you what you have now. Cutting every corner imaginable...with people, practices, ethics, finances, clients...gets you what you've got now: a company that is but a shadow of its own brand promise, a shadow of its former self, and a shameful example and cautionary tale of "what not to do" and "how not to run a company". You'd think "they'd" know better.

Pros

The managers always seemed like they genuinely cared, and lived their motto of taking care of employees. There will be many free food days or charity dinners at work. The most flexible schedule possible.

Cons

People do not take kindly to you calling them. There will be shifts that you don't come close to making minimum wage, but as long as you do for the pay period you can make $0 in a shift.
