Pros

They pay above market averages and, provide great benefits.

Cons

While they really sell their company culture, and constantly discuss using good judgement, they really want you to do things the way they think it should be done. Your good judgement is only good if you follow their opinion of good judgement. Even if you have a good reason to do something differently, its not okay. Their policy of fail well means you can make a mistake once. not twice. Terminations are frequent, and abrupt. In the last 6-8 months they have termed 3 supervisors, and about 15-18 people. There is a higher than average rate of churn here. While they pay high wages, and provide low cost benefits this is done as a way to make everyone replaceable. It makes it easy to attract new employees. Earlier this year they also announced plans to change tier 1/2 support from internal netflix employees to contracted employees with a call center provider.

Pros

Great benefits and pay. Wonderful people to work with. Onsite cafe. Flexible scheduling.

Cons

No formalized QA process. What one supervisor loves and recommends you do will get you fired with the next supervisor. It's totally subjective and you never see any documentation of how you are being graded. Currently the only 2 stats are average handle time and return contact rate. You can be exceeding expectations on both and still be fired for "not providing an amazing customer experience" which could be as simple as your supervisor doesn't think your tone of voice is positive enough. Your supervisor can and will sometimes listen to every call you took in a day to find something you did wrong to fire you over. You will never see anything in writing on any monitor including the one that gets you fired.
