Stressful and fake

Pros

This company has many different lines of business. I was working on for them as a United Urology Engagement Specialist. I found the work to be very stressful but I did feel supported by my trainer and my initial team manager

Cons

I was always stressed because we weren't allowed to tell callers that we didn't work for the Urology group directly. Meaning that they would call in looking to make an appointment or speak to someone in the office and we would have to act like we were putting them on hold to run in the other room to find someone for them when in reality we were calling the actual office. There were lots of rules about what you could and couldn't say on a call and each week you would have a quality check to make sure you were meeting there standards. Everything felt forced and fake.

Pros

- Supportive and friendly colleagues that make the working environment a safe space. - A good place to start a career or gain exposure about a workplace.

Cons

- No guaranteed career prospects. - No employee benefits, everything is on your own. - The HR team is unprofessional. They tryna scam my last salary claiming that I never returned the company asset but in fact I have returned them under the witness of my superior. Then they tried another excuse to brush me off, luckily I managed to get my salary in the end.

Unprofessional and Rude

Pros

There are no pros. Try to avoid them at all cost for both employees or employers.

Cons

unwelcoming office - if you're a new joiner or a former employee who's going through offboarding, you won't have a card to tap in or out. They instruct you to register at reception but you'll be provided with a literally piece of paper as a visitor's pass. You can knock all you want as there are no one sitting near the doors. You'll get in if someone happens to go out or in. Problematic communication from HR - they'll make any HR process (tax, work permit ...) unbearable. They never provide a clear communication or timely response. I was even yelled at by a Senior HR when I followed up with her on a process that she's in charge of... As a matter of fact, a lot of decent companies in the country has blacklisted Startek due to their attitude
