Pros

I have more vacation time and paid holidays than I have had with other jobs. The insurance is great. There are little perks such as discounted cell phone contracts and ways to earn money for insurance copays.

Cons

Our management are literally bullies. They pick one person and run them off. The turnover is ridiculous. The workload is ridiculous. The "pay increases" and "bonuses" are insulting. There is zero training. Salary means working so much you can not support a personal life. Management is rude and unsupportive. They openly berrate employees and are generally tasteless - often overheard gossiping about employees. Management all the way up to the international level is detached from the day to day work and from employees. Departments are not supportive of one another making what could be smooth teamwork become a stop and start operation that feels like a game of strategy and coaxing rather than just work tasks.The environment is very hostile. Hours are long. No one knows if they are going to be in trouble for something and tension is high all day every day. The job itself probably wouldn't be too bad if there were enough employees to handle the workload and there was actual training and management was completely replaced by people who don't thrive on drama and who are willing to communicate with one another about the job so that there is one answer to a question. Frustration is created by management's personal interpretations of each process- the "rules" and "policies" vary depending on who you have to work with.

Pros

decent pay, I don't have anything positive to add really, life experience taught me to never refer anyone to that company

Cons

dirty building in Homewood off of West Valley Avenue that was infested with cockroaches and in the ghetto. It was not safe. No covered parking. When it rained puddles all over. The managers micromanaged and the cubicles were so low there was no privacy, they had mandatory overtime and mandated when it was taken..mandatory work on Saturdays 8-12. Felt like a number on a report. Mangers didn't get to know the employees, only looked at a report

Pros

salary is fine, specially because of the bonus, and the compensation package is great since it includes nice rates for credits

Cons

enviroment is horrible, people focus on polytics and bureocracy instead of work... its like living in pure canibalism where everyone is trying to step on you in order to ascend... working hours are 12 daily... as an average... even if you don't have work, people's value is set based on the time they spend at office, not their achievements
