Pros

- generous base pay with added OTE - friendly atmosphere - great benefits e.g. blue light card and other discounts

Cons

- unrealistic targets - can be very stressful - training is in a classroom setting and focuses on the products they offer. You’re expected to go out on the floor after training and immediately start taking phone calls despite having no training on the phone systems. - You are tracked on EVERYTHING. You are allocated a certain amount of time for toilet breaks etc. - Work life balance isn’t great

Pros

RAC has well structured and supportive management. If you work in Bristol office specifically in GRC (group risk compliance) department, they're all very warm and welcoming. There's also a lot of flexibility in how you work in the style that brings out your best performance. The environment is fast paced, so it's something to be ready for but it keeps the work interesting. Lastly, your effort will never goes unnoticed here. Everyone is appreciative and CEO Dave Hobday takes time to personally acknowledge outstanding performance.

Cons

6 months in, I haven't found a single real, significant negative. Sometimes it gets really busy, but that's part of the pace and energy of the role.
