Pros

Flexible scheduling, health, dental, and vision benefits.,

Cons

The National Call Center in Baltimore, MD does not promote from within. Management positions are not filled from within. The only way to move forward in this company is to relocate. Any movement in you current location is a lateral move with little increase in pay. There is little structure here. When the company makes changes to processes, little thought seems to be given to how these functions will be handled. Emphasis is placed on controlling cost and doing things differently. Much less focus is given to customer satisfaction and product quality. Leadership at the call center needs to be reevaluated.

Pros

Great work environment Pay is great for retail Job keeps you busy

Cons

Lack of communication with leadership and coworkers. Leadership seems to have favorites Schedule but know it's a pain Seems that there's people who would like the be full time or part time that are temporary right now aren't getting the positions Feels like nepotism but maybe I'm wrong. Finding out that there's family relations just seems off putting to others. Getting responses like you didn't get the job because you didn't answer your interview questions right just seems like a cop out The amount of drama happening is getting out of hand. Leadership doesn't seem to care about it.
