Pros

If you survive your meltdown you can laugh about it later. I've had two now, no support at all from Sanctuary. They really like to kick you once they have beaten you down!

Cons

Everything horrible! I am dead inside from this company, they are nasty and make you feel terrible if you make one little mistake! They pile so much work on you with no training help or advice! Don't dare question ANYTHING!

Pros

Calls are difficult with callers often irate and/or emotional. Company processes are complicated, long winded and change often which can make it difficult to provide the most up to date information. Management quite cliquey - Great for those in the cliques, harder for those outside (although not so bad that it becomes a truly limiting factor in job satisfaction and progression). Hardest part I found was balancing quality against meeting calls stats. Company toot quality and customer care over speed and quantity but I assume managers are incentivised for teams to hit targets as I found the pressure from them for speed was intense and on more than one occasion had me in tears.

Cons

Pros

Honestly I can't think of one positive thing about working here!

Cons

This has been the worst place I have worked! The management are ridiculous, rude, discriminatory, have zero sensitivity training, are condescending, patronising, arrogant and ignorant. You will be spoken to like you are an uneducated bumbling idiot. Your stress levels will go up exponentially. You will be passive aggressively threatened if you are off sick. They use the bradford score which essentially discriminates against all long term illness. The list of issues could go on and on but just be aware if you decide to work here that they will make you feel small, unimportant and inferior.
