Pros

you get paid on time. Can work remote. Most coworkers are friendly and helpful.

Cons

Underpaid, as an L1 you are expected to provide support for both Canvas AND Portfolium, but you are not fairly compensated for supporting two platforms. Some supervisors are very pro micro-managing Depending on your supervisor you may be guilt-tripped for taking a break. Turnover is becoming a big problem, a lot of tenured agents are leaving. Very little chance to move-up. They love to hand out fake titles that have no official title change or pay increase, but come with more responsibilities (ex. "L1.5" "coaches" ," acting supervisor" ," Team Lead" ). They are using a new Big Brother system to monitor your "adherence" time in your assigned delegation, but it is buggy so you have to watch it like a hawk to make sure you don't get written up for the tool not functioning correctly. Vacations aren't approved/denied until about 3 weeks before the time is happening. So you don't know whether you are officially approved for the time off until then, makes it very difficult to commit to future vacation plans. They are slowly outsourcing support to Budapest. Mostly only hiring part-time agents in the USA. They are likely going to make USA start paying for their benefits in 2022.

Pros

Good people in the support department.

Cons

There are no perks to working here. Support is underpaid and we are treated as a call center and not tech support

Pros

Amazing benefits, relaxed work environment (not your typical office), food and drinks stocked up in each kitchenette (2 on every floor) up for grabs, as well as frequently catered meals for employees, and fun-loving attitude amongst all of management.

Cons

Don't expect any kind of pay raise for having worked there 90 days / 1 year / whatever, but there are other benefits that kick in after 1 year or 2 years which make up for it.
