Pros

great environment, towards coworkers, nice people, nice leadership team. They help you, they give you food sometimes and have nice parties when available. They have great company benefits.Very flexible when it comes to asking for leave of absence and stuff like that. They try to get out off the phones as many times as needed to avoid too much stress.

Cons

Too many calls, very hard to accomplish goals and mainly get promoted or get bonuses. High rotation, people leave like on a daily basis from all accounts. Too much pressure towards metrics to the point where your job is at risk. Very bad policies in regards to what behaviors are tolerated from customers over the phone so pretty much you have to deal with irate/ rude people all the time and still treat them nicely even if they don't deserve it.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
