Pros

Benefits, campus, cafeteria, large staff

Cons

A member of management in the contact center has been using her position of power to recruit her employees and entry level call center employees for Amway. This has been brought to the attention of HR, screen shots were provided as well as a group of near double digit employees speaking to Amway favoritism and feeling retaliation for not joining. HR "concluded and resolved" the situation (not the first time HR has been contacted in regards to this problematic leader). The manager remained intact and immediately continued pressing staff to join Amway. It's tough to support a company that will knowingly allow this to happen. I was unable to choose to remain at a company that lacked the integrity to defend its staff from retaliation.

Pros

Some Benefits- but 401 k was actually insignificant after more than a year working there.

Cons

This is the first and only time in which I worked for a company where the norm is that the customer isn’t first, and shows very contradictory culture with the company values they claim to stand by. Lots of micromanaging and stress. They fired people left and right within first year for the most ridiculous reasons. If you got sick one day, it would count as “dependability issues” and that is one of the reasoning for firing that was used in my case (I used one single sick day in a year and a half, but my manager wanted it on my record for six months). Sick days come out of your vacation days. I was one of the last ones from my hiring group to survive the firing. My manager received company-wide recognition for embodiment of the company values! That should have told me something. I was lured into this place because they “advertise” as Best Place to Work. I found it’s a paid ad when it was too late.

Pros

I liked a lot of the employees and some of the leaders

Cons

If you like being ridiculed on emails ( if you are right or not) with directors and account managers by your manager this is the perfect job for you. Training is very minimal. I enjoyed then first leader - they brought back one from the Toronto office and she was a nightmare. We worked right by our supervisor and could hear her talking down to him and snap and snark at him in front of the team. He was so stressed out- he left and went to another team. Seems like she sold the director out as the director was let go and she was very vocal and proud about it, and boasted she did all her work for her and she knew nothing. The absolute worst manager I have ever worked for, will not make it anywhere else because she has zero people skills and treats employees like garbage. Account managers, some managers are hostile and talk down and use negative humiliating tones in their communications. There is no accountability or pride. Walking through the office all you will find is people on their phones or gossiping. If you do the minimal and do not care about the customers and cause drama you will fit in with this culture. The pay is terrible. very low and you cannot support a family on the salaries. They just let a whole bunch of people go to save money but they really should have looked at the leaders and started training better people. They advance people to different departments that has zero clue on how the departments are run causing shortages of work, and angry customers. The mail room also loses confidential documents all the time. I am very happy to not have that toxicity and the stress of working for a hostile manager in a toxic environment fueled with fear, intimidation and negativity, have not looked back.
