RecommendsPositive OutlookNo opinion of CEOI have been working at Account Control Technology full-time (More than 5 years)
Pros
I was hired on as a Debt Collector, but had hopes of doing IT work. With a great deal of luck, a position had just opened up. The team in place allowed me the opportunity to present my knowledge and willingness to learn. They took a chance on me 5 years ago and I haven't looked back. To date, ACT has been the best place of employment I've ever had the pleasure of being a part of. My IT team in particular is incredibly noteworthy for their technical ability, team rapport, and approach-ability from the user stand point.
Cons
It's hard to compete and stand out when your team is so innovative. They're always pushing to make themselves and the team better for our production staff and infrastructure alike. It's a great problem to have.
Advice to Management
Keep up the great work. We notice. You all make it easy to write a review this positive. I couldn't give an entirely 5 star review because you should always be seeking to better your self/company. So I chose 4 stars for Compensations & Benefits. My compensation isn't bad at all. If I had to ask, It would be for better benefits. Insuring a family isn't cheap, that's for sure.
Over all, great work. Keep it up.Account Control Technology 2017-06-13 15:42 PDT![Account Control Technology Logo]()

Pros
getting most weekends off is about the only pro
Cons
extremely stressful, goals are constantly changing so you never know what you're going to be up against for the month and if you don't meet your goal you're given a warning. Also the turn over rate of their employees is ridiculous but its all for a reason

RecommendsNeutral OutlookNo opinion of CEOI worked at Account Control Technology full-time
Pros
Good bonuses, Great Co-workers, Good Location, Career advancement opportunities for those that excel, Decent training program. I believe management does want what is best for their employees, but sometimes lacks the skills to motivate ethically.
Cons
Bonus structure always changing, Work/life balance, Unprofessional environment. Favoritism. An unhealthy "family environment" is indoctrinated by management that is untrue and hurtful when you fall out of favor with the inside crowd, Collections
Advice to Management
My advice is to stop talking out of both sides of your mouth to try and motivate people. People are not pawns to be manipulated. Just be fair and honest with individuals and they will appreciate you for it. Other than that it was a wonderful learning experience for myself.

Doesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookNo opinion of CEOI have been working at Account Control Technology full-time (More than a year)
Pros
The bonus payouts are nice. 1 hour lunches are a pro as well. Lots of incentives for hitting your goal.
Cons
Management is almost non-existent. It's a given that because of the job description we are verbally abused by consumers, but why do we have to take that from the people who are supposed to be our superiors? Human Resources is a joke, they look for any reason to fire people. There is also the fact that they play favorites with certain people. There is no faith in upper management other than 1 or 2 managers, but even they get backed into walls almost everyday. The parking is literally trash. Above I stated that there are incentives, but they rarely make good on any promise to give anything away when they say they are going to.
Advice to Management
Stop playing favorites. If you are going to enforce a policy stick to it, instead of using it as a scare tactic to get people to "behave". Human Resources should be trying to help us, not make us feel like we are about to loose our jobs. Like I said before lack of faith in management.
