Pros

You can train and work from that part was pretty cool!

Cons

The pay is too low considering the amount of work and abuse you take from the clients! Very stressful!!!!! Constant QA & QC, the team designated to help you has a God complex. They forget they were new once too and can be very disrespectful when they try to “help you”. I was inured while working here and all I can say is good luck trying to get worker’s compensation. Oh and I was fired from here because I was out due to rehabilitating and recovering from my injuries and they told the unemployment office that I quit when I have a recording of the HR admitting that I was fired.

Pros

They'll hire anyone on the spot, which is nice in a time when the economy sucks and the job market is full of fake job listings, or you can't be hired by other companies for some reason. The first paycheck came about 10 days into employment, so it was only extra-rough living for the first week.

Cons

The managers are quite aggressive and/or controlling, the training is inadequate, accessibility is quite poor for a place that prides itself on being equal-opportunity, the intranet has a lot of anti-union stuff on it, our pay is docked if we take an "unauthorized break" over 6 minutes, the gender neutral bathrooms are not very accessible (by the W1 entrance, making them the only bathrooms on site which requires workers to badge in/out to use), accommodations through the standard portal require a doctor's note affirming disability (seriously, we're Americans, and we're being paid the lowest you're allowed to pay us. Many can't go to the doctor)... I could go on, but I only have so many hours in a day. Seriously, don't work here unless you have no other choice, and don't stop the job search.

Not running for a political office? Then don't work here.

Pros

As long as you keep your head down and don't make waves, you COULD have a reasonable chance at job security.

Cons

It becomes obvious that the higher the status, the more you run into those playing shady office politics. Management builds cliques of those willing to lick boots and those who refuse find themselves banished to the land where your hopes and dreams or furthering your career...die. It's a high school level of maturity and mentality infestation. Don't bother trying to make anything better or you'll find yourself, on the curb with your office in a box, bewildered as to what happened.
