Pros

Remote work from home was nice

Cons

The call volume to insane and you get yelled at if you step away for a mental break. Was yelled at for using the restroom a few times a day. Everyday is 100+ calls. It’s draining. Only come here if it’s your last resort

Business Outlook

Pros

Pay was good my first year when the 20% bonus hit, even if I was working 10 hour days and sometimes even on weekends, but that was the only pro.

Cons

Horrible management. My second year, put me on a PIP decided 2 weeks before Xmas (before the bonus) to let me know I would not be receiving any compensation bonus or increase in pay. Worked me 10 hours a day the whole year just for me to not get my pay. lost a ton of mental health stability. no help since i was remote. worst two years I have ever experienced.
