Pros

I've seen a handful of promotions since being there. The benefits are solid and the pay is decent. The work location on the west side of Madison is good too. The Monday through Friday hours are nice too.

Cons

Alot of micromanagement in my opinion from various levels (sales coach, seniors, supervisor). Also in my opinion there seems to be some inconsistency in how they handle unexcused abscences in my department which is frustrating, kills morale and has caused me to lose some respect for my immediate boss. In my opinion there also seems to be some inconsistent handling of employees that arent giving 100% effort and spend more time chit chatting with co-workers even while customer calls are waiting in queue.

Pros

The time off is generous, which you need to keep your sanity working here.

Cons

Terrible leadership, MICROMANAGEMENT MICROMANAGEMENT MICROMANAGEMENT- you really get treated like a number not a name here. Performance is all numbers based. the only time management talks to you is when you have done something wrong. Absolutely no recognition for a job well done. But they are real quick to let you know when you have messed up.

Pros

Benefits are great. Some of the people who work there. If you need entry level experience it may help you in securing your next position.

Cons

Upper management likes to belittle employees. Don't criticize or bring new ideas to the table. The pay is on the low side.
