Pros

Lenient, not as strict as most places. Originally we did not have benefits, but eventually we got some which were nice. I appreciated that.

Cons

Pay is low and raises are rare. Any sort of benefit we receive means no raise for like two years. As inflation is outpacing pay, coworkers are looking for opportunities elsewhere. Moral is pretty low because of this. There is NO opportunity for career growth in this company. Due to OCR (marketed as AI) takes a chunk of the workload now, we are expected to process things that are harder to discern in the same amount of time. So now we have been running into constant teetering of quality and through rate issues. Extra projects we are put on have little or unclear documentation, or there are some odd exceptions not stated anywhere. The constant checking and going back and forth on projects as we run out of work means processing has slowed down, and harder to get back to optimal speed and mentally taxing, but still expected to have the same output. It is a good entry level job, but expect to move on if you want more pay or to advance your career.

Pros

I really enjoy working with my immediate team. We’re supportive, collaborative, and have built a genuinely positive working environment. My coworkers are one of the best parts of the job, and there’s a strong sense of trust and camaraderie among us. Day-to-day work feels manageable and even enjoyable because of the people I work with.

Cons

Outside of my team, the company can feel disconnected. Communication across departments isn’t always clear, and it sometimes feels like different parts of the organization are operating in silos. Additionally, the location I work out of can feel overlooked compared to others, which contributes to that sense of disconnection and lack of visibility.
