Datalot Reviews

Every week you are graded on performance. But the manager doesn't list what you are actually doing wrong or if you are doing something right. Instead of customer service, the manager wants you to argue with the customer rather than providing them a service that they recommend to their friends. This is a telemarketing position, not anything to do with data entry or customer service. You have to be a great salesperson just to get someone on the phone, but you they require that each calls take less than 3 min to complete the sale.

I wrote a 1,500 word email when I quit. That's how many it took me to explain to them how much is wrong with this job and their company. They don't provide anything of value. You will speak with random Americans who have no idea why they're talking to you, other than they made the mistake of saying online that they want insurance. You will get as much personal information from these people as possible. Then you will transfer them to an actual insurance company. If they stay on the line for 30 seconds you get like 20 cents. Meanwhile they get a lot more than 20 cents and on top of that they get to sell the information you harvested from the caller and you don't get any of that either. It is mindless, pointless, morally ambiguous work. You have to say you're from a different company every call because it's so shady they can't have just one name. None of the people you talk to are trying to call you on purpose. You can find better work from home positions for more money. Something that serves a useful purpose. Go elsewhere.
