Not a Great Career Move.

Business sales specialist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Casual attire and decent benefits.

Cons

Continuous pressure to perform without any significant financial compensation. Expect $60,000 plus per month in sales with for an extra $2500 in commissions with relentless pressure to perform. Meanwhile you can't give legal advice to those in search of it due to UPL laws. In addition you're paid $13 per hour and have to be available from 7:45am until 9:15pm and certain weekends.

Low quality management + low pay = low morale

Legal document preparation specialist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Pleasant environment, nice office, fun company parties, cool, young crowd, 450+ people employed in one place (LA - headquarters)

Cons

Dead end, poor, inexperienced management, zero room for growth, little recognition of accomplishment, poor communication between middle management and subordinates, insultingly low pay for the ridiculous expectations

Unnecessarily stressful, awkward and unwieldy systems, unwilling to accomodate those with handicaps, or ADD.

Customer service representative

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Nice, friendly co-workers. Good trainers who work very hard despite what they have to work with. Nice office and grounds.

Cons

Paid WAY lower than appropriate for the high-stress, extremely focus-intensive, un-necessarily overly-complicated work. Trainees who have learning disabilities end up feeling lost very quickly, and very little attempt is made to make sure they are catching on. Tenured employees are required to "shadow" trainees in the final stages of training which can sometimes add to the confusion of an already stressful experience. The unwieldy array of websites and computer tools one has to use in order to do the job are un-necessary, and could be easily streamlined. The location is relatively inconvenient.
