Pros

Concentix has one leg up... they know how to be one step up above the equivalent to a concentration camp. Understand working for a Government contract that KPI's and reductions in AUX codes that minimise time for self reflection (after a difficult call) or the time to releave one's self after taking call after call, means better statistics for Concentrix, but they actually do a good job in convincing you that you are bad for going to the bathroom or going on a general break. One good point is that we got to speak to a wellness coordinator before Christmas 2020, it was fantastic because she got us to do a breathing exercise that literally calmed me down from the crazy week we all had.

Cons

It's a shame, the training is actually decent with trainer's who actually live and breath concentrix but also the client. You actually form a solid bond with those around you. Come the end of the training, let's smash that bond, split you up and let's never talk of the Concentrix values you've been taught. It actually frightens me that people are told to take less time in a tea or meal or screen based break (like going to the bathroom) so they can read emails and respond than doing so whilst they are on the phone to a customer. The quality of work that these Service Officer's have to do deserves better than that when helping those of the most vulnerable in our community. This is a private company at the end of the day trying to do what public servants can do on 30-50% of the normal wage.

Pros

A lot of great people with tremendous learning opportunities. My program is 24x7 so if willing to work nights and weekends, you can earn a higher rate of pay. Never boring and a lot to learn which works well for me!

Cons

Things can be very fast paced. Some people feel overwhelmed because there is a lot to learn.

Pros

Paid training Always hiring Occasional snacks Some managers are cool

Cons

Lie about base pay and pay structure Most bonus pay is tied to surveys so things outside of your control will screw you. (i.e. customer asking for something your not allowed to do so they rate you badly on the survey.) Office politics and some terrible managers that will go out of their way to get you in trouble.(i.e. You had a technical issue during a call and had to disconnect[not uncommon thing] and they'll bring it up with upper management acting like you hung up for no reason. Schedule will change constantly and often little notice. -Mandatory hour cuts and overtime within 2 weeks of each other -Schedule can shift from M-F 8 to 5 to Thursday to Monday 1 to 10. HR will lead you on about opportunities in other departments but they never actually open for you.
