Alright sometimes, painful the rest

Customer service representative

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Most people you work with.

Cons

Managers that do not respect you and treat you like dirt for the most part. Constantly being hassled to get customers information despite them not wanting to give it to you. Understaffed, but would never hire anyone to help with that. Part-time workers were forced to work 40+ hrs every week and I mean every week, but get none of the perks of full-time.

Pros

Good place to get your feet wet with real experience as a computer service technician before moving into a career. Good co-workers.

Cons

Outdated information systems. Very unstructured. No universal protocols or guidelines for ANYTHING (administrative procedures, forms for customers to fill out, forms and reference material for employees, etc)
