Pros

Health care benefits, 401K, work from home, some education support for certain majors, camaraderie among coworkers, possible bonuses depending on the program you're working on and your hire date, middle of the road pay for a call center

Cons

Team leads tend to care about you at least a bit but management not so much. I was transferred to another program with no notice and no choice. When I asked to stay with my current program and team--my team was getting me through the stress of the job at that point and working with credit card customers there is definitely stress--I was told that the work there was a revolving door and that if I didn't like it, I could find a new job. The funny thing is, I was transferred to the other program because I was doing so well at work. If my stats had been lower or I had missed a day or two of work, then I wouldn't have been transferred. So my take-home message was that management doesn't really care about individuals and that I should have apparently had a lower work ethic, which I definitely cannot do. Further con: Some stats are based on others' actions and not on ourselves. If those stats are lower, it cuts into our paycheck. The company has known about this discrepancy since 2016 or earlier and has still not corrected it.

Pros

*It will take a lot for them to fire you because they are so desperate. *Job security *They will accept most of your PTO requests

Cons

*You handle around 80 calls a day, not stop, you are constantly monitored even when working remotely so if you go inactive outside of your scheduled breaks management will instantly call and reprimand you. *You have 2x10 minute breaks and one 45 minute lunch break that is unpaid. *You can get extremely abusive customers and management don't care if you just got threatened with vulgar and violent things by the customer, they won't let you take a break to calm down between calls but straight away as soon as you hang up you have to take the next call. *They initially offer a bonus for performance but make those KPI's impossible to reach and knock off points for ridiculous reasons such as saying the customers name one too many times. *You are forced to keep the calls at 5 minutes length and they cut your bonus if you exceed, most customers issues absolutely can not be solved in 5 minutes, they do not care, this results in customers calling back multiple times and getting more and more abusive. *Training is sub par at best and doesn't teach at all how to handle customers but just what the regulation is for the client you happen to be working for. *Management will do it's best not to help you, especially if you are remote, the slack chat is ignored and when you try to call for aid you will be told you should know to deal with it yourself. *The only thing management cares about is to keep the service level at a good % as this is how they get THEIR bonus and will work you like a slave to get it. *Extremely high turnover rate. *No appreciation at all for experienced/long term workers. *Pay is low, with the promised bonus it can sound decent but as mentioned above they will do their best to not give it to you.
