Pros

Voluntary time off and generous pto. It was nice not having to ask to use it. (You will need it. See below)

Cons

It’s glorified customer service, a little bit of a misleading job description. They try to fluff it up and make it sound like it’s more than it is. You’ll be taking back to back calls and have to deal with disrespectful customers and managers. Toxic isn’t even the word. This place runs on fear and control. Management micromanages you like it’s their full-time hobby. Want to use the bathroom? You’re expected to IM them every single time—and they’ll still message you if you're not back in five minutes like you’re taking a vacation in there. No room for growth unless you’re there for 50 years, they say after a year you can get promoted but they have unrealistic and harsh metrics. If you’re missing one you’re not going anywhere, lateral moves are possible but competitive. Don’t waste your time unless you’re starting out in a better role perhaps.

Great benefits. Everyone is friendly and helpful. They do more than just pay lip service to work life balance

Pros

- Opportunity for Mobility and career growth, cross functional collaboration, global organization - Amazing mentors, colleagues and collaborative mindset - Volunteer Culture

Cons

- Mobility can be challenging w/o a sponsor. - Depending on departments, fast moving and may impact work-life balance. - depending on the team, you might encounter micromanagers or teams that may be selective with mobility. Though inevitable in some instances, if you are aware of team dynamics and team culture, employee could mitigate or manage/avoid this risk.
