Pros

There is a very thorough induction and training process throughout which you are supported and there is no pressure to get everything right, it's a learning environment when you can make mistakes and learn from them. There is also no targets around toilet breaks, hold time, call length like in other call based roles and a focus on doing the right thing by the customer. Everyone in the office is also absolutely lovely and I haven't met a single person who hasn't been nice and welcoming.

Cons

No cons, this is the best company I've come across as they are a company who genuinely care about their employees wellbeing. It feels a bit too good to be true at first but the longer you're here the longer you realise they do genuinely live by their values.

Pros

The role offered exposure to account management and customer interaction, and there is potential to develop communication skills in a fast-paced environmen

Cons

My experience during my probation period was extremely difficult and ultimately had a long-term impact on my confidence in working within similar roles. Expectations and performance feedback were not clearly communicated from the outset, particularly around probation status and structured training. Formal feedback on performance appeared to be introduced without prior clarity that I was under a formal probation review process, which created significant uncertainty. During this time, I was also pregnant and experiencing health-related challenges, including sickness and medical appointments. I did not feel there was adequate understanding or flexibility shown in relation to this, despite providing appropriate medical documentation. At one point, I was placed under significant pressure based on a single call, with what felt like an ultimatum regarding my employment while still in training. This created a highly stressful working environment early on in my role. Communication around sickness absence and expectations was also inconsistent at times, which added to the pressure during an already vulnerable period.
