Pros

If you are a good employee, generally they will try and find work for you. PTO plan is generous, however it's a use it or lose it, and no one can ever use all the time. Options to work from home in certain roles. Benefits are decently priced for what they are.

Cons

Pay is low. Negotiate your rate prior to hire, or you will never see significant increases. Raises are 1-2%/year. No 401k match. PTO policy doesn't rollover or payout. Your bonus, if you get one, will always be late by several months - and if you leave you forfeit any bonus you earned in the prior year. Now you only get bonus paid 2/year vs quarterly. The people at the top have been there forever and seem to be out of touch with the reality of how companies manage the workforce now. Stuck in old ways. When people leave they don't fill the positions, they just dump the work on current employees with no incentive.

Pros

Pretty much anyone can get hired. If you need a quick paycheck, call centers are great for it. I worked in the AT&T department (companies contract with Sutherland for their customer service hotlines-I was not an AT&T employee) and the lower-level team managers always did their best at keeping morale high on their teams. There are a lot of employees, so you're bound to find people you get along with. The facility is nice.

Cons

Upper management was delusional when it came to meeting retention quotas, and the "commission structure" set you up for failure. Customers were calling to cancel their services, and employees are expected to do everything possible (just short of blatant lying) to keep the customer from canceling.
