Pros

There is absolutely nothing good about this company. The pay is pathetic, leadership is unbearable, and the workload is nothing but punishment.

Cons

- Leadership is deeply toxic and goes out of its way to make sure employees fail. - Demands are beyond unreasonable, and expectations are completely impossible to meet. - The only thing management cares about is finding someone to blame when problems happen, instead of fixing anything. - So many people have walked away from this place, all because of them. This company drains everything from you and leaves you with nothing but regret. Stay far away unless you enjoy being set up to fail.

Pros

I really enjoyed the culture and benefits while working at Zola. Every member of the team made themselves available for questions and help. There was never a time where I felt I couldn’t ask a supervisor a manager or team member for something and they would be annoyed or leave me hanging. Everyone is really so helpful.

Cons

The SNI agents ( mostly remote workers from the Philippines) cherry picked which tickets they wanted to tend to sometimes they took to the more simpler tickets to keep their numbers up and reroute it the more intricate tickets back into the queue. Management was very good about calling this out when we complained about it and sent out several announcements request requesting that this and requested that everyone take responsibility for the tickets that are routed to them. Unfortunately, my contract was not renewed because the company employed bots for our roles. I felt that this was greedy and disingenuous, but I do understand that majority of companies are moving in this direction for entry-level position positions.
