Pros

Collaborative and Supporting working environment Leadership invested in employee growth and development. Fast- paced and dynamic work environment that keep you on your toes and engaged. Core values help genuinely focus on changing lives, for clients and employees. Heavy emphasis on employee engagement (onsite and remote) focused on creating a balance between work and play. As a result genuine relationships are formed in your department and other departments, making coming to work enjoyable everyday.

Cons

Rapid Growth does me process evolves quickly, adaptability is key. Cross-departmental alignment is a work in progress, again adaptability is key.

Pros

No compliance for agents to be graded by. Can pitch freely. QA covers the important details. You can listen to the QA calls so you can keep the client if they have any objections.

Cons

If you bring up suggestions to make the company better you will be ignored, belittled, and discouraged. Complaints about company policy violations will get ignored too if it protects favored individuals. Please, if you care about your clients, you need to run. After clients are enrolled their experience is not the best as they have complained. The system is super cheap as well and is hard for employees to track information. Sinking ship! If agents don’t take the initiative to be better, there are no incentives to do so. Just hard to do so remotely. You are by yourself working. There are no bonuses or fun incentives. Constantly told to be gracious because the company is growing but the system is slow and there are unnecessary restrictions on what we can enroll for the clients. Beware. Not the best for longevity.

The worst experience ever!

Pros

I honestly do not have anything good to say about this company.

Cons

Management is clueless and the majority of employees are in Guatemala. The pay scale is basically incentivized to screw over the client. This company does not care how a debt is settled for how much and I does not have any strategy in place whatsoever to protect clients. The in house counsel is way over his head. I don’t see this company lasting even another 6 months. It’s amazing how clueless this company is. Nearly every settlement set up on the last 2 years for clients has been lost due to missed payments somehow which no one seems to be able to figure out. Clients are paying $1000’s more than expected. I think I graduated 1 client within the time frame originally agreed to on their contract. Most clients are extending programs by 1 year. This is the worst debt settlement company I have ever seen. I feel terrible for their clients.
