Pros

Great pay for what you're doing which is pretty easy work

Cons

They hired a ton of new people and laid me off very suddenly. No warning. My supervisor claimed it was because my performance was lacking, but I was right on par with everyone else at the time. I was doing the same amount of emails per hour. I was getting great reviews from my clients. I was very confused when I got the phone call because I had been working with them for two years. I'm the financial provider for my household, I was going to school full-time, and I have a young son- all of which they were aware of. I think the real reason they laid me off was because I was in school, and I needed to have my schedule re-adjusted every semester, but they knew I was in school from the moment they hired me. I would love to review them more positively, but they could've, at the very least, given me more advance notice to find another job. What they did was pretty messed up.

Pros

The training schedule and anticipated work hours were very convenient and aligned well with my availability. The onboarding process initially seemed organized, and I appreciated the opportunity to start quickly.

Cons

There was a lack of clarity from the beginning. During the interview, I was assessed on chat support, but training was strictly voice-based. This shift in expectations was confusing. Communication and expectations were not clearly aligned between the hiring process and training. There appeared to be little flexibility or understanding when unforeseen circumstances occurred. On Easter Sunday, while in training, I lost power at 1:48 PM due to circumstances outside of my control. Within a short time frame—by 3:07 PM—and despite a 30-minute lunch break during that period, I received a call informing me that I was being let go from the contract. There was no opportunity given to explain, recover, or rejoin training once power was restored. The decision felt rushed and lacked empathy or consideration for real-life situations that can arise in a work-from-home environment.
