Pros

at the time i worked there, it was fully remote for service desk analysts if they so chose. the manager i had was a very friendly and understanding person.

Cons

pay is on the lower end for the position. you will be given multiple accounts - if youre able to wear many hats, then power to you. Ex - you are assigned to provide support for 3 different accounts Account A) XYZ university Account B) XYZ Bank Account C) XYZ Vacation and Travel company each account has their own processes for what you can and cant do in terms of support. each account has their own greetings and standards of what you need to verify a user. each account has their own rules of what teams handle what escalations and what channels you must go through. each account has their own different apps and softwares. the list goes on. personally, i found this to be slightly overwhelming since you never knew who or what account was going to be on the other end of that phone at any given time. I felt that being forced to be a jack of all trades instead of an expert on one accounts processes and software had a negative impact on my ability to provide the best quality service

Pros

- Opportunity to work on interesting, high-impact projects. - Flexible work environment that supports work/life balance. - Many talented and knowledgeable colleagues across the organization.

Cons

- Leadership dynamics can feel misaligned, particularly when less experienced teams are driving decisions that impact more tenured professionals. - Career growth feels unclear and, at times, unattainable without the "right" visibility or relationships. - Cross-functional friction is common, and navigating disagreement does not always feel supported or safe. - Compensation and advancement do not consistently reflect market expectations or individual contributions. - Organizational priorities can feel disconnected from the day-to-day experience of employees.
