Very Stressful! - Customer Associate II Assurant Employee Review

Some employees in call center would not have been employed by other companies for Customer Service; couldn't speak well nor write well. Under educated. Sometimes explosive atmosphere: 2 women employees shoving a maintenance worker to the floor for servicing rest room and hanging a closed sign. But, THEY needed to use that rest room when others were available. Belittling of employees in front of a group, false promises, very reactive, not proactive. Every thing seemed to be a 'fire'. No accountability by management or staff. HR very, very supportive of management and to heck with the employee. Managers always away in a meeting, left group to flounder except for a 'lead' rep who sometimes was slow to respond or not at all. Lack of continuation training and development--management didn't have time for it's employees! Dress code was in constant violation--some women looked at though they were dressed for the evening, complete with huge wigs, false eyelashes, revealing outfits, 6" spike heels; was an every day outfit for a lot of women. Business casual was the target. I saw flip flops, raggedy jeans and blouses. Only the men seemed to dress appropriately.
