Pros

There are fun incentives and monthly company games/contest. The information in the training is easy to understand. They are big diversity and charities. There's always a couple times a year where you can vote for your most desired shift according to your personal scores. Benefits are offered.

Cons

The incentives are for things such as TVs, headphones etc, but are almost impossible to win due to the numbers they want you to hit center wide. (Plus most people tend to want a cash bonus, time off or paid time off not items.) The training is complicated and rushed. The trainers aren't able to give too much 1 one 1 attention to a class of 20-35 people. The system and sometimes the contracted company's website is very aged (looks like Windows 98 font and windows) and is VERY slow which is VERY important when you have a 2 minute hold time in which you have to check in with a customer and a 5-10 minute call time they want you to uphold on every call. There is no hands on help when you need it. With teams of up to 25 people, 1 supervisor (whom doesn't take calls unless there's super high call volume and are made to by "higher ups") and 1 supervisor assistant (whom also happens to always be busy) its practically impossible to not get in fussed at about being in an auxiliary on your phone that indicates your having computer issues as to why your not on a call. Lunches are 30 mins and the breaks are 15 mins. It takes 10 total to get to and from the breakroom/locker room so you do the math. There's no time to meet with any of H.R. unless you were to come in early before your shift off company time of course. Hopefully their at their desk when you get there. There are no pay raises over time. No paid time off offered at all. No holidays off (you do get holiday pay). Benefit packages are unfair.

Pros

For the most part, I have an open availability. I do however, like not having to work on Sundays. Some campains allow for a 1 hour lunch break. The hiring process was fairly easy. Your equipment is provided. There is opportunity for advancement. They are helpful when it comes to license renewal. Calls are back to back which for me seems to make time go faster. Flexibly as to when you want to take your lunch break. You have to opportunity to assist people without having to feel it was rushed. Off all major holidays.

Cons

Rushed training that may leave some questions unanswered. I feel like I had to figure things out on my own. Getting the assistance you need to help a client took longer than it should, especially when the client is on on hold, waiting for your response. At times some trainers seem to be unprepared for the roll they have taken. Calls are frequently monitored. Not much time between calls. It can take too long to transition from on campain to the next after the project has ended.
