Pros

Flexible working hour Due to time difference, there may be time you have nothing to do or due to system maintenance, you are forced to take a break. Lovely office Training provided to ensure you know what is expected

Cons

Too many process which differ from one person to another. Depending on who tasked you, you have to based on experience to decide which process is correct. The training provided, more often than not, will be useless due to different people follow different process. System is very buggy, slow and crashes. Too many senior staff who is power hunger and believes they are right and there is only 1 way to perform 1 task (i.e. the only way to sum up an excel column is by cell 1 + cell 2 etc). If you speak up, it mean you are smarter than the senior. You will kind of be “marked”; person A will tell you to perform the wrong task and reply in email that you do not follow instructions properly and the task you do is wrong.

Pros

I work out of the HQ office, we have access to gym, cafeteria and onsite nurse. The people you work with are all fresh out of college for the most part so the atmosphere can be pretty laid back. They'll hire pretty mucy anyone so it's a good job right out of college. Just don't expect to stick around for long.

Cons

Upper management could care less about you. The pay is attrocious but as others mentioned, people are afraid of leaving for fear of not finding another job. You will probably start in inside sales, making awful pay and even less comission (unless you get lucky and are put in a good account). Try and move around in the company and you quickly find that all other departments are just the same. I worked my butt off on my prior position in this company, often working insane amount of hours overtime in a highly stressful position. I went above and beyond my job and got nothing in return. No thanks from management or the sales reps. They made no attemp to keep me in the position when I looked elsewhere and then ask one another just what is making people leave. Management is a HUGE joke, it's all based on popularity and they often have no idea how to manage. The CEO only cares about her bottom line, and that is making more and more money. We barely get any time off and when you do want to take a day off it's almost like you're doing a bad thing-sort of frowned to take off. There aren't enough paid holidays and the yearly bonus is basically nothing. You will NOT move up within this company, since the old timers arent going anywhere. While they get paid the big bucks, the little people doing all the hard work get zero recognition. There used to be a huge high turn over rate within this company and it's only slowed down because of the economy. I cannot possibly understand why anyone would stay with this company past a few years. You learn no skills that you can take on to another job.

Pros

Good benefits Good people Great sales experience In my opinion, this is probably one of the best places to start straight out of college and get experience as a business major

Cons

Poor base salary No recognition for hard work - I worked overtime on a shorthanded account because management thought it would be a brilliant idea to fire a team member before the account's busiest month for about two months straight. I barely received as much as an "atta boy", and once I was due for my next raise the company quickly forgot about this and sent me packing Atomosphere is very political so be prepared to brown nose a little
