Pros

NONE, misunderstanding, poor relations and people not doing their jobs.

Cons

Try and get an interview , after three weeks of trying to phone, email and contact their human resources, I have never received an answer to a person. They just plain do not get it. Good luck and find another company.

Pros

This is a sort of technical support job supporting internet connectivity. You should know a little about computers and the internet. As with any customer support job there are great and not so great customers this is something that comes with the job, not a reflection of the company. You'll learn the techniques of dealing with customers if you've never worked this type job before. Fortunately I've work Helpdesk before. Hours are fairly flexible, after your training period you will be given a schedule that is pretty consistent. I worked 30 hours a week with little change. You will be expected to work a weekend day which was no problem for me. There are plenty of training resources that they supply online. As with most at home support type gigs you really have to motivate yourself to use the materials, there is no one standing over your shoulder to force you. Your calls are rated by QA and you are told what areas you need to improve in. Sometimes I disagreed with a rating but found them to be pretty fair. The chat rooms, L2's and other resources really help in learning the job. The chat rooms helped me the most because you definitely felt you were in a group and not alone. I might of just been lucky but the Team Leaders I had were very helpful. They were online and easy to contact. When there was a problem with my performance they would advise and give pointers. I experienced no negative contacts with my Team Leader at all.

Cons

Compensation is not the greatest in the world but I did see a clear path for moving up within a year or so if you were able to perform and keep up your ratings. One problem I felt was as you were learning and becoming comfortable at performing tasks or programs. You were dumped into new programs with little training and had to pick it up as you went, very stressful when dealing with live customers. Large amount of tools and multiple screens required to perform tasks, counted at one time had 6 windows open jumping back and forth like mad. Tools need to be consolidated into a reasonable amount of screens

Pros

*Work from Home *Nerd Friendly Culture *Atmosphere is laid back *Easy to learn - and provides great experience on the turn around.

Cons

* Job Conditions are not honestly revealed during interview * Policies/Rules are made up on the fly with no continuance * Work volume is high; and resources are unreliable, systems unstable, and blame is always shifted to the * agents on the line management refuse to own anything in regards to accountability; everything is always your fault. * The company values their contracts above their staff; meaning they will work you to death; provide none of the incentives they promise; hammer you with demands; never provide positive feed back; shirk on promise raises force markets, contracts, and work loads on you when told that it's optional for pay incentives - and never deliver any of the incentives * Management does not exist - You contact your team, and supervisors through chat programs, and emails making it very easy for them to ignore your concerns, and they will - * They make claims of performance based raises; but they will always find an excuse to give it to you, when and if you make metrics that would allow for the raise * No organization every Team Leaders, Supervisors, Floor Managers, Level 2 tech is on their own program; nobody is on the same page - everyone thinks they are the final say even when they contract each other - leading to a situation where you are damned if you do; damned if you don't. * You are contracted to for clients so you have no say in the big picture - and if you bring up a concern over policies, or systems - management either have no authority or don't care enough to fix the problems. * Unless you are willing to relocate to Texas there is no advancement; don't let them lie to you about this as they will - they will always lie to keep you around. * VERY high turn over rate - I started with a wave of 25 people; 10 months later i was the last one of that group and then i left - Most people quit in the first year - Because of this demands are very high on those who stay; work loads are high and this snow balls into more turn overs - this company is snow balling towards a disaster * They violate their own contracts to keep up with the volume; the brass bite off more than they can chew and often will force markets to collect on single agents in direct contradiction of contract limits - this means if they get caught they could lose the contract and thus lay offs may occur - Very little job security on the company side. * EXTREMELY LOW PAY - Very low for the industry; you have to wait almost 1.5 years for any paid time off in a VERY stressful work environment; be ready to get cussed out every day and be forced to deal with vulgar people with no escape; and no resources to cope.
