Altisource Employee Reviews about "work environment"

Pros

Great working environment, nice and helpful people, management cares, free snacks, opportunities to help local community through projects with Habitat for Humanity.

Cons

Systems are a little slow. The office can be alittle chilly from time to time. There is a lot of traffic around the office.

Pros

Very Nice Work Environment & Pleasant Co-Workers

Cons

NO TEMP TO PERM OPPORTUNITIES

Pros

Depending on your manager, they may be willing to work with you if you need to occasionally leave work early or work from home. Colleagues are smart and friendly.

Cons

The work environment is extremely toxic. Scape-goating and CYA are forms of art in this work environment. If something goes wrong, you will be shoved under the bus by most managers. There is rarely a set direction/goal, so you may be required to constantly switch gears at the last minute. There are a lot of red-tape for every process and every request. Corporate compliance actively wants the BUs to fail.

Pros

Somewhat flexible schedule. Coworkers were knowledgeable and easy to work with. Direct supervisor was knowledgeable and made the work environment fun

Cons

The company grew fast which caused issues with how procedures progressed along. This caused frustration amongst employees. Management doesn't listen to employees needs

Pros

Entry level pay is $15 ph + bonuses based on preformance. Training is 5 weeks, 2 in the classroom, 3 on the floor.

Cons

The work environment is extremely stressful. It's collections, so I expected to get a hard time from debtors. The stress here is caused by management. All managers and most team leads act hostile and annoyed when you ask for their assistance. Their assistance is required for you to do your job. Literally several times per active call you won't be able to move forward without them coming to your desk and signing off on each step. They also set un realistic preformance standards. You are expected to make 300 outbound dials a day. Okay that can be done, if that was all you were doing. However, you are also expected to field inbound calls as well. Each inbound call takes time away from your outbound dials and they refuse to acknowledge this. If I'm expected to make no less than 38 dials per hour, then I lose 2 hours of my day to inbound calls, how can I meet my goal? Answer: I can't, but during my preformance review I will be told I'm not meeting key preformance indicators (300 dials) and will be denied any raise. Additionally my work files, needed to establish my bonus each month will randomly be taken from me and given to favored agents, thus decreasing or eliminating my bonus. Management is constantly heard speaking negatively about employees and discussing how to get rid of them. I've worked many corporate jobs over my 19 year work history. This is by far one of the worst jobs I've ever had. Even worse than working night shifts at Denny's. I can't wait to get out and it has nothing to do with the collection aspect.

Pros

You can see the changes that we're making to change the culture and environment at the office - particularly the Atlanta office. Although we're extremely disconnected as business units, likely because we're buying so much so quick, we have outgrown our office and are in the process of expanding our Atlanta footprint. The benefits are OK, we do get snacks and drinks for free (a perk unless you're on a diet...) but we have more team culture-building activities that is hopefully going to change this extremely lethargic and boring place for the better! - we're growing like crazy - salaries are good - snacks and drinks - fairly casual work environment - you can wear jeans - they're cutting off the dead weight and bringing in a lot of new talent

Cons

- business units competing for priorities - on-boarding is a complete mess - our IT is horrible - I feel like we may as well just use DOS-based programs - we are still trying to have small company policies but we're outgrowing them

Pros

The pay is above market and there are a lot of very smart people in the company.

Cons

I don't even know where to begin but here are a few: - The executives create/encourage a toxic work environment. - HR is the biggest offender. - They have discriminatory hiring practices including hiring decisions based on an IQ test. - All of their revenue is generated in US yet only small percentage of the workforce actual based in the US. - Continuous small lay-offs so they don't have to call them that. - As soon as you build something good, they ship it off to India and lay you off.

Pros

They did have a good variety of snacks and beverage types in the kitchen. The Boston office has a good location.

Cons

Awful toxic work environment. They don't hire the best people. The management team creates a toxic environment. No accountability and no real leadership. They don't empower leading contributors.
