Pros

There were foosball tables and beanbag chairs. The team atmosphere was exciting at first and it was like one big group of friends.

Cons

Voices.com hires and fires a lot of people on a regular basis. I didn't bother to get to know people's name after a while. Everyone they hire is typically under 30 because their pay scale is low. You'll notice that Voices is always hiring because it's telesales and if you don't hit your quota 3 months in a row you get in trouble. Voices.com also changed the name titles of their employees on a regular basis. First your a Business Development Manager, then a Commercial Account Manager, then a European Account Manager, but really you had the same telesales job the entire time with minor changes to your role. It seems like Voices.com is always restructuring and use their employees as test models. They like to hire entry-level people so firing them isn't a big deal. I feel like the only person who has job security is the one Human Resources Manager they have there because they have a ton of hiring and firing to do. When they called me in for an interview, it was a group of about 30 other people they called in as well. I realized then that I was just a number because they couldn't even remember what position I applied for, they just stuck me where they wanted in their organization. In the interview I had 2 minutes with 5 different people. One person asked me what kind of sports I like to play. So 2 out of the 10 minutes of my interview was about sports. I didn't have an opportunity to ask them a single question about their organization and expressed that to them when they sent me a job offer. The Management there is really inexperienced and not professional. It's pretty much anyone who's survived there long enough becomes a Manager with no proper managerial training and I found that a lot of them picked favourites because they weren't actual Managers, they were just the "Senior kids in High School" who have been there longer than you. I would be very leery on applying to this job, but if you are a recent grad living in your parents basement and want an entry level job I would say go for it if you have nothing else on the go. Do not leave a good job to work at Voices.com
