Pros

In a time where the economy is dwindling, it is good to know as someone in their 20's, I can still make over $15/hr without any sort of degree. They advertise many different incentives in the call center that you can "strive" to reach. The people you work with are generally fun to be around, and you can joke around with just about anyone. The phone benefit really is beneficial. I appreciate having health insurance at a reasonable rate.

Cons

Upper management is so in their own world, the decisions they make make it so clear that really don't know what we REALLY need. They care about numbers only, and don't really change what matters most. Employee satisfaction is getting lower and lower as they are, in my opinion, focusing more on the numbers than employee satisfaction like they were when I started with the company 2 and a half years ago. It was all about the balance of decisions between the owners, employees and customers and every decision was made through this balance. Now, it is hard to find many decisions with employees in mind. I work in such a small department within the call center we often get over looked and sort of "given whats left" in many different aspects. Our department is ran by a bunch of jokers who, like I said before, don't know what our department needs to be succesful, but make decisions based off of what looks good on paper. The incentives, while great on paper, are in a lot of cases VERY untouchable and only create more frustration and disappointment. Oh, and we now pay additional taxes on our phone benefit that make it a bit less appealing...just the cherry on top.

Pros

Excellent worklife balance. Very supportive and collaborative culture. It is a place where if you can find a way to add value to the core business of the company you will be rewarded and recognized for your efforts.

Cons

Large organization with a reluctance to implement change unless there is an immediate crisis to address. New ideas and opportunities outside the core business are met with skepticism, however this is not different from many very large organizations.

Pros

Reasonable pay & benefits, exposure to technology, good to have a job in a down economy. There are a lot of good people working here.

Cons

Little to no opportunity for pay increases. Executive meddling late in project phases. Indecisive leadership and/or leadership lacks the authority to make decisions. Constant reversal on strategy creates a LOT of unnecessary work. Specialists are promoted to people management, when we should be looking for excellent people managers. Leaders do not live the values.
