Pros

Pay was on time, benefits if you last long enough.

Cons

Extremely high turn over rate which directly impacts customers. Training is geared towards those just switching departments, not new hires. Don't dare try to use the restroom between breaks. You will be interrogated as to why you are going. Don't call in sick. Ever. They will act as if the entire call center came to a screeching halt and millions of dollars lost. Most unfriendly working environment I have ever seen. Morale is in the toilet, unhappy employees create unhappy customers which is incredibly evident after they have waited 60 minutes or more on hold. Older folks don't have this level of patience nor should ANY customer be expected to wait that long to be helped. How this company got rated one of the 100 Top Companies in Oregon to work for is mind blowing. I'd hate to see what companies who DIDN'T get that rating are like!

Pros

Consumer Cellular has an incredibly supportive culture where leadership, fellow trainers, and other departments work together and genuinely want people to succeed. I feel trusted to lead classes, coach new hires, and contribute beyond just delivering training. The role allows me to use my strengths in teaching, coaching, and developing others while making a meaningful impact on employees' growth and confidence. The remote work environment, work-life balance, stability, and opportunities for continuous learning make it an enjoyable place to work. Most importantly, I feel valued, supported, and empowered to do my job effectively, which has made this one of the most positive work experiences of my career.

Cons

The role requires a high level of energy and engagement each day, and advancement opportunities may be more limited depending on organizational needs. However, these challenges are relatively minor compared to the overall positive experience and support provided by the company.
