Pros

I suppose to be fair and put something in this box, Sitel is a friendly and laid back place to work and offers paid training and monthly bonuses.

Cons

Oh where do I start. First, it's a call center, that means long days of just sitting talking on the phone using scripted language with callers who don't care what they are being told. I have worked in other call centers before but never before have I been paid so little and have been expected to meet so many goals. I answer calls for three different departments for the client, each with different ways of handeling the call and penalties for not handeling that call type in the prescribed manner. The place is geared more toward handeling phone calls, as many and as frequently as possible, than helping the callers.

Pros

none i can think of right now. but i will give it a go. If you are on the dole and need a job to tie you over for the short term than this could be okay but if you have aspirations for a career than look elsewhere as will not be going anywhere with this company as they are just too dynamic for their own good. Higher management look after them selves and friends and the rest of us have to fend for ourselves. You could be the best agent in the world but you will still not be able to progress

Cons

Many and there is no job security as they say one thing and do another. The downsides are many u don't have a social life as you always thinking about work. The shifts and hours you work will change randomly and frequently to suit the business but when these changes don't work we go back to other patterns and shifts. management blame everyone but themselves even though they are in the driving seat. If you get done for speeding the policeman does not give the the points and fine to the passengers does he? So why do the agents suffer for management failures.

Pros

Sitel provides good benefits, a wide range of schedule options, and is a global company which allows transfers to other locations.

Cons

For middle management staff, the workload given is unrealistic, while the project management team (Operations) provides little or no feedback, there is no training provided for basic job duties, and the environment does not promote teamwork.
