If I would have known, I wouldn't have accepted the job.

Pros

I honestly don't know at this point. If there are any pros, I haven't experienced them yet.

Cons

There are many things not communicated to you as a new employee of Teletech, prior to beginning the job. I found out almost everything, that would have steered me away from ever applying with this company, from co-workers within the first few weeks of work. I even asked for information from the recruiter, prior to starting the job, to which she responded by saying I would receive that info the first day (which I did not). One of the most important things they did not tell me? THEY NEVER GIVE RAISES! Not even an increase to match inflation. Again, if I would have known this, I would not have settled for the pay I was offered and negotiated for. Benefits are awful, luckily, I don't have to us the medical insurance through Teletech. Vacation time is a joke, especially if you are considered an "associate" employee, which I am, again, something I was not aware of when hired. The client whose HQ we work at, seems to look at Teletech employees as outcasts, it's disgustingly apparent. The client shuts down over Christmas and pays their employees for this time, but Teletech will not pay us so we either have to use up PTO or not get paid at all, except for the day of Christmas and New Year. The expectations they have for us, are so much higher than the client's full time employees we work along side of, and yet we are paid less, have no time off, and terrible benefits. It's funny, we are good enough to hire and work for the client as a contractor, but we are never good enough to become one of their full time employees. Also, Teletech management may be the most unprofessional and unqualified people I have ever associated with. It's actually embarrassing having the client meet and know who our bosses are, because of the lack of professionalism, education, and sorry to say it, but just overall hygiene. I have been actively looking for a job elsewhere since I they first week of working as a Teletech employee.

Pros

I was told up front what the pay would be, and what the max hours would be. Considering that this is a part-time work from home job I didn't expect too much. However, working with teletech has been wonderful. Overtime has been available since I first hit production, even though I don't take advantage of it because of my primary job, it's nice to know it's available. I only had one issue with my first paycheck not being issued on time, it was resolved over the weekend and my pay was deposited on Tuesday(payroll was closed over the weekend and couldn't issue the pay until Monday). The training was awesome, Christine E. deserves a raise for how well she handled very unruly adults who couldn't seem to figure out how to mute their phones. I strongly suggest that anyone who is looking for part-time work to consider this company, but please be honest with yourself and with teletech about what you are able and willing to do. If you can't provide a quiet work area this may not be for you. Keep in mind with all legitimate work from home jobs they require a quiet work area as you are "in theory" working from a call center. Also keep in mind that when people give reviews (myself included) we are very bias to what we have experienced. Working from home is NOT for everyone, it takes a great amount of discipline to work from home, because even though you have chat rooms to reach out for help, you are still very much by yourself trying to do a job that you only had a few days of training for (training depends strongly on the campaign you are selected for).

Cons

The cons I noticed are not about the company but with adults who lie and say they have a quiet work environment, then once you get hired your home is anything but quiet. Keep in mind when you're in training you are NOT the only one being trained. My class at the beginning had over 50+ people. By the end of training we only had 24, with that being said, take notes, take full advantage of your training and do not allow other inconsiderate people to cost you a great work at home opportunity.

Pros

Challenging, and good learning environment. Opportunities exist for promotion and lateral movement. Company fosters, promotes, and rewards innovative thinkers.

Cons

Very political, change is constant, but seems unnecessary at times. Lack of ownership and accountability across many teams within organization. Too many people involved in the decision making process.
