Pros

The remuneration is relatively good and it is a good place to start just for the brand name on your resume.

Cons

There is little opportunities for career progression and growth. Management is not interested in grooming talents/leadership from within. There is a lack of direction in terms of leadership. Important changes/news within the firm are not conveyed until the eleventh hour. Politics is rife and employees are treated as pawns of the firm. You are hired, at best, as a well-paid production-line worker. ' Do what you are told and don't question too much' seems to be the way to live if you want to stake out here for long, otherwise, your frustrations will one day kill you. It is no wonder that the turnover rate here is high.

Pros

Workload is manageable they don’t put too much on you. Hybrid you come into office once a week.

Cons

Some managers are nice some are not and if you have a manager who doesn’t like you it will make the job stressful. If you get a zero for QA part of your bonus will be gone and if you get 3 within a 7 month period you will have to come into office 3 days a week and be on a final and will not get a bonus, bonuses could be higher in my opinion, if your not a good collector they could be as low as $500-$700 every 3 months if your a decent collector they could be $1500 every 3 months if your a good collector they could be $2250-$3375 every 3 months but the base pay isn’t high enough either it’s 50k to 56k all around just not enough money
