Pros

The benefits are decent and the coffee machines are great.

Cons

They expect you to push sales on every call. Sweet old lady calling because a fraudster got ahold of her debit card and drained her checkings? Doesn’t matter, you’re still expected to make a sale. I joined First Tech because I truly enjoy helping people. I feel so disingenuous when pushing products onto people who are calling for help. They justify it by saying it’s “to benefit our members” but it doesn’t feel honest. Everything is also tracked and timed, so be prepared to be reprimanded for going to the restroom outside of break/lunch time. If you like sales, this job is great for you. If you genuinely want to help people with their finances, look elsewhere.

Pros

Nice location, easy access, good D&I

Cons

I worked here for two years, the Pay scale was so low you had to work two jobs if you’re a single person. They have the customer service representatives doing sales, and then find ways to not give sales bonuses because your customer service levels aren’t high enough. I had worked in customer service for eight years and I’m still in customer service at another institution and never have I seen such ridiculous rules. If you have to send a request to another department and they call them back your first call resolution is crap. And remember this is a sales team so they pay you so little and work really hard to not give you a bonus. I talked to a Work coworker who stated that now they don’t get their quarterly bonuses because they have to be at 110% of First call resolution to get the quarterly sales. Bonus makes zero sense.
