Pros

The people who work here are great for the most part. I have a great manager, but a few of the other managers can be quite difficult to deal with and put their own quotas above their employees. The benefits are great, but vacation days are pretty worthless if you don't feel like you can use them due to the workload you come back to. The atmosphere from a work culture point of view is great, but the team leads and managers are overworked and they can make you feel like you can't ask questions.

Cons

If you've worked in a call center atmosphere before then you know what to expect. You're pretty much chained to your desk because of the phone queue software monitoring your every move. You can move up very quickly within the company, but be ready to make this your life if you want to do so. They really need to work on providing constant help in the help chats that the Account Managers use because the team leads or managers who are helping are constantly taken away for some client escalation and you're left hanging there with a client on the phone who needs an answer.

Pros

Work remote. Fantastic leaders, Definitely a place I have enjoyed working.

Cons

Pay is slightly less than competitors but work life balance and culture make up for it.

Pros

Great benefits; 90% of the ppl that worked there were the best and really did great work.

Cons

Made employees choose between having MLK Day off or Juneteenth- both which are federally recognized holidays. Excuse was that our customers are open on those days so we need to be open. So as a company, we had to pick which would be a paid holiday and everyone chose Juneteenth because it was in the summer. I think we got a floating holiday to use for any other holiday we wanted off that wasn’t recognized by the company. As you can imagine, this racism was prevalent in management/leadership. My team was the most diverse team and we all got restructured/laid off. There’s a lot of ego and control issues in this company, especially in Talent Acquisition.
