It's clear from your feedback that you've had a difficult and stressful experience, and we sincerely appreciate you taking the time to share these candid thoughts. Hearing about your experience with the job has taken on you is something we take very seriously. We are truly glad that you were able to benefit from the work-from-home option and some schedule flexibility. We believe these are key components in supporting our team, and we're committed to preserving and enhancing these programs. We also value the recognition of our coaches who are striving to provide a positive experience. At the same time, we fully acknowledge your specific concerns regarding the pressure, metrics, and support for handling difficult customer interactions. It is never our intention to have employees feel unsupported or harassed, and we are continuously evaluating our policies and training to better assist our agents in these challenging situations. Your comments about the current PTO and sick leave policy and the specific bilingual pay structure are also critical feedback that we are absolutely reviewing to ensure our compensation and benefits packages are competitive and genuinely supportive of our team.

Pros

The ability to learn, research and experiment. Fairly laid back (at least in my department, can't say for the others). Loved my boss!

Cons

Upper echelons bit off more than they could chew. They made big, expensive decisions without a clear vision of how they were to be used. They built this huge 5G network, then sent email messages asking the employees for suggestions of how to use it to make it profitable.
