Pros

Hours and dress code (but trust me it's not worth it)

Cons

Job task is absurd and difficult. No money to be made. Constantly micromanaged. Literally spoken to like you're stupid. Everyone there is gossipy and miserable. Horrible women. No loyalty to their employees, turn over would blow you away. Manipulative and uneducated management. Waiting period for benefits and PTO. Insaneeeee system of points if you're even a minute late you get a write up.

Our software and processes are complicated and not everyone is a good fit for this. This requires a high level of computer expertise, organization, and critical thinking all of which is shared upfront during the hiring process. We have people job shadow to make sure they understand what our positions entail and in order to avoid hiring people whom are not a good fit. Sometimes we cannot determine this until it's too late and we are forced to part ways. We are proud to have a diverse workforce and to provide great careers and a great working environment for our employees, many of whom are women. Benefits and vacation time is industry standard and we hold ourselves to a high level of performance. This is how we have grown into one of our industry's leading service organizations. We extend a lot of time and effort into our hiring and training processes and sometimes things don't work out. This is all part of business and no party wins.

Pros

Hours are great, get off early on Friday

Cons

I have never worked for such unprofessional upper management (married couple). The office environment is like you are in third grade. Treat good employees and management better! It is as simple as that....

Pros

They’re lucky I didn’t report them.

Cons

To start, there’s a high turnover here for a reason. The combination of poor leadership, unrealistic workloads, and ongoing discrimination makes it a difficult environment to stay in long-term. When I first started, I was already a bit uneasy knowing the company follows a “zero defects” philosophy. Ironically, there were frequent defects happening daily. We were told these issues would be tracked and used for training improvements, but nothing ever seemed to come from it. Problems were acknowledged but never actually resolved. There was also a complete lack of structure. It was often unclear who was in charge of each department, which made communication and accountability nearly impossible. Expectations were high, but guidance was minimal. What stood out the most and not in a good way was the workplace culture. I experienced repeated microaggressions and discriminatory comments, including remarks about where I’m from and even inappropriate assumptions about my abilities. At one point, management took it upon themselves to “diagnose” me, it was completely unprofessional and unacceptable. At the same time, with my experience, some employees, including myself were closely monitored for things like break times and even bathroom use, while others were regularly taking extended breaks (to smoke) or stepping away without consequence. In the end, I was told I didn’t meet their “professional standards,” which was surprising given the lack of professionalism demonstrated within the workplace itself. And while “professional standards” were emphasized, they were applied very selectively. Basic workplace expectations like hygiene and presentation were not consistently enforced, which made the emphasis on standards feel more performative than genuine.
