Pros

Absolutely no real redeeming quality to the job. Most coworkers are very nice but it feels more like we are friends through sharing a common trauma. We are all trapped. Nothing good about the atmosphere or work conditions.

Cons

Very poor training. We spent 4 weeks of "intensive training' and then were stuck out on phones with 2 support staff and no one even showed us how to log on to the phone. It is more like a high school than a work place. Floor support talk down to the csr's and leave you feeling afraid to ask for help. Very little incentive other than a free t shirt to improve. More likely thratened to be 'written up" than encouraged or supported. Middle management have very little job experise, since they were promoted through the ranks. There is no sense they care for their employees at all, as if they know we are here only because we cant be elsewhere. They put absolutely nothing beyond rhetoric into retaining staff. In 2-1/2 months I have taken 4 days (unpaid) off, anywhere else I have worked I missed 2 days a year.

Pros

Some level of job security. You know exactly what you're doing because it's a call center. Different client projects that you could apply to be part of. Located in Orem by the mall. Decent pay ($25 an hour... for now).

Cons

You can't have anything on the call floor depending on the client (I support Intuit, so there are no phones, paper, pencils, books... nothing). The benefits are atrocious. PTO doesn't start until after 6 months. Company politics and favorites exist here. I'd say about 30% of calls get transferred to us from other departments (Payroll, Payments, Desktop, Saves, Sales, pretty much everyone) that should not have been transferred and could have been solved without us. They're going to hire more account resolution specialists soon after so many agents left, and they're starting their pay at $20 an hour.... so just think about what means for us. You get one occurrence per day you are absent even if you call in sick. I think 10 is the limit.
