Pros

*Decent pay depending on the contracts *Co-works are nice and will try to help you when you need it (the Team Leads won't) *Get to work from home

Cons

*Training was non existent (watch a day of videos about sexual harassment, sat in a zoom meeting for 12 hours just to get a 100 people to login to an email account and our last day of training we were showed the application we use but didn't even get access to it until a week after we started taking calls) *Couldn't clock in for the first three days of work....was told that they were tracking our times. A day before the pay period closed we were told we needed to provide the hours we worked those days. Ok I had the times; I worked 2 (12) hour days during training. When I looked at my time card - only was paid for 8 hours all three days...THEY CHANGED MY TIME SO THEY DIDN"T HAVE TO PAY ME OT *They changed my schedule multiple times the night before a shift and wouldn't tell me. I wouldn't know until I logged in that morning that my schedule had been changed for that day. *In 2 weeks my manager changed 4 times. *In a zoom meeting - in front of a 100 people an agent was told by manager "You have everything you need to complete your job" that was the sarcastic response someone got for asking a question on how to access a system NEEDED to do their job. And they were told that they needed to start taking calls. *I personally had a Team Lead tell me (in a zoom meeting in front of 40 people) was told "you need to deal with difficult customers." This was a response to me saying I had a guest screaming on the phone demanding to speak to a supervisor and refusing to get off the phone. Mind you this was after I worked to assist and de-escalate the call for 20 minutes. *Having to work late until no calls are left in queue....scheduled to end at 545p and working until 10p to clear out all calls. While I understand this....we work seamlessly with two other departments that never call back customers and don't even answer their phones and yet we're expected

Pros

The opportunity to work remote is the only pro.

Cons

I rarely leave negative reviews, but my experience here was frustrating enough that I feel it’s important to share for others considering employment. The company suffers from major disorganization and a lack of consistent policies. Expectations frequently changed without clear communication, making it nearly impossible to feel confident in your performance or job security. Metrics were unrealistic and difficult to achieve, especially given how understaffed the team was. Instead of addressing staffing issues, the pressure was pushed onto employees. Compensation does not match the workload or expectations. Employees are underpaid for the level of performance demanded, and benefits are disappointing. One of the biggest concerns is that earned PTO, vacation time, and sick time are not paid out, which feels unfair and misleading. Management practices were also questionable. Employees were required to be on camera, which felt excessive and unnecessary for the type of work being performed. Overall, there was a lack of trust and professionalism in how employees were treated. This role could have been much better with proper organization, fair policies, and realistic expectations, but unfortunately, it fell far short.
