Pros

If you want to change into fintech then cx support is a good door to enter to see what it's like. But once you are done, recommend getting out and moving on. Don't waste your time. They will string you along for pay promises and jobs that never come. It's toxic and have fun earning time at a snail's pace and then trying to take time off. Terrible. Overworked, underpaid.

Cons

Warning: If you're just here for a paycheck, get it, but plan your exit ASAP. As in, put your resume out there for another job as soon as you start this one. Seriously pursue something else. The Head of CX does all of the work. Director, manager and supervisor does very little. It is like crickets when you need help and the workload is outrageous. Turnover is high. They all seem very inexperienced and don't understand how to provide health to the team. Weve gone backwards instead of forward. It is toxic. The head of cx needs to clean house. The team on phones and backend work hard, but management and supervisor are driving them away. Loyalty has tanked since our best lead left for a better opportunity due to toxic work culture. Cracking jokes and a team building activity won't fix it. Many want to leave.

Pros

N/A. There are none, at this point.

Cons

Toxic, high stress, lack of psychological safety. Very little to no structured training or support. Inexperienced and disorganized leadership, lack of guidance, and managers being unavailable when needed. CX carries the heaviest workload at Wisetack and paid the least. They expect you to take on “extra” duties but never will increase your pay. A topic of discussion between the CX agents is always encouraging the others to “plan your exit” early, as they will let you go as they’re using AI to answer customers calls now. They recently laid off agents but didn’t want to call it that, but that’s what it was. The amount of peers in the department that are now on medication to help with their stress and mental health, which includes myself and leadership, has grown over the years. You will need it. Over time, it becomes clear that the demands of the role significantly outweigh the support provided. What may initially seem like a strong opportunity can quickly turn into a stressful and unsustainable environment, and it only gets worse the longer you are there. One last thing- having certain employees making “jokes” about ICE coming after them is NOT a good look. I’m sure a lot of contractors and merchants are from other countries (or possibly undocumented).
