Pros

If you are young its like the Army. If you can handle working there 3 or 4 years before being promoted as a sales rep it is great.

Cons

micromanaged too much. They don't care about degrees its all about the numbers. Most managers do not even have a bachelor's degree. Not allowed to sit at all they expect you to stand for 8 hours on cement floors. No privacy for customers.

Pros

Benefits, the challenge of high paced call volumes and ever changing market; great people to work with.

Cons

In the Business Service Center, the seniority is so high that unless you book all your vacation at the beginning of the year, it's virtually impossible to get anything other that mid week days off and not very many in a consecutive order.

Promotions are often given to 'buddy's', must be in the 'good ol boys club' to get a promotion
