Pros

Complimentary Meals: Enjoy the perk of complimentary meals, enhancing the work experience. Casual Attire: Embrace a relaxed dress code that fosters comfort and a sense of personal style. Comprehensive Health Benefits: Access quality health benefits that prioritize employee well-being. Remote Work Opportunities: Embrace the flexibility of remote work options, promoting work-life balance. Positive Office Culture: Thrive in a vibrant office environment that fosters camaraderie and productivity.

Cons

The AM1 team dynamics resemble a high school environment, with cliques and toxicity prevailing. The leadership, particularly CM, fosters a toxic atmosphere where obedience is prized over critical thinking. It's imperative to eliminate toxic individuals and instill honesty in training sessions. The job is challenging, and support is lacking if one isn't part of the favored group. Questioning is discouraged, creating a stifling environment. Inquiries about implementing a chat team yielded conflicting responses, suggesting managerial reluctance due to loss of control. Not everyone excels in phone-based roles, and the workload contributes to low morale. Ultimately, I transitioned to Paychex, attracted by better compensation and a healthier work environment.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! We recently adjusted our on-site work requirements for leaders in Operations to provide new team members with hands-on support. We see the value in the face-to-face interactions that Team Leads and Managers have with new hires who are client-facing. If you haven't already and would like to discuss this further, please reach out to your leadership team. We want to ensure that you are supported along with your team members and ensure a positive experience for all.
