Pros

Overtime is plentiful, however even if you volunteer for 20 extra hours per week, they will still ask you to do more.

Cons

Next to none on the training for job you are about to do in which you are expected to excel in.

Worst Place Ever!

Pros

There were no pros while working for Star Tek.

Cons

This is the worst place I have ever worked! horrible management, not at the local level but at the corporate level. pay was never correct, the WAH tech support was beyond horrible and cant understand them, they don't help you when your system is down. Didn't get paid for down time when their system was down , but was expected to sit there for days until they fixed it. the only way I could sign up for my medical benefits was on their system, and mine as well as others were down, and we were told we had to wait until open enrollment. Turn over rate so high we had to work in departments that we were not trained in but would be reprimanded for doing something wrong. I could go on and on about the cons. If you are considering working here run the other way!

Pros

Very, very easy to get hired - the company is notorious for hiring most any applicant out of knowledge that the industry has high turnover and that they have gotten worst than most.

Cons

Approach to management is that the company does whatever is needed to manage the contracts with its clients, regardless of the spirit of the work done or the impact on staff. Many sites operate out of fear of the loss of a contract or the decision of head office that it can be cheaper for them to do something elsewhere. There are no rewards for doing well - a reasonably popular schedule is only available with medical requirements in most operating areas. Corporate expectation is that staff's non-work life is irrelevant to their desire to have maximum flexibility in addressing their own needs, and that that is just what the work world is like (actually, it isn't.)
