Pros

Good team sprit with your team, very sociable place to work, nice customers in general.

Cons

Training provided by "one of the best sales people on site" only to find shortly after they was only top as they were manipulating the system (lying about their sales), If you dont read a script almost word for word from a piece of paper provided you are put on a "performance plan" which is sold to you as a good thing that will get you extra training - the training consists of three calls being listened to management obtaining written evidence of call then generally passing onto another manager for a weekly meeting, so you are basically going to work each week with possible dismissal if the company feel the need to do so! Also a nightmare to book holidays, unless of course you are dating someone in a senior position or are part of the "bt clan" Basically the job is great for someone that does not have a heart or is a yes sir no sir person or someone that is willing to allow bt to brainwash them that everything they do is the best - when it is clearly not the case!

Pros

Benefits are better than most US companies. You get twice or triple the numbers of days off per year.

Cons

Focus is more on originating company location for group events and emails. Due to time zone differences, it can be difficult to work with others without adjusting your schedule. It is difficult to get promoted outside originating country. Roles are few and far between in the US.
