Pros

Some of the employees were nice. Quick to hire. Decent pay for minimal training required.

Cons

Stress. Angry people. Taking calls made to people that weren't necessarily expecting a call, frequently unable to tell them why they got the call without requiring their life story. Even then once you collect all the info, you still may not be able to tell them anything about the call - seeming really sketchy/scam like.

Pros

Company is very large and has a lot of opportunity. Company has great benefits too.

Cons

Managers aren't encouraging. Managers try and hold you in your position. Company doesn't promote within. Company would rather go outside to save a few bucks. There is no diversity in upper management. No chance of advancement unless your willing to relocate.
