Pros

Very hard to think of any

Cons

You're expected to lie to clients on a daily basis which leads to any belief in the product and direction of the company to quickly evaporate. Access represent the crux of outsourcing gone mad. You are monitored by people who are not even in the country, let alone have any knowledge of the work. Further you have no ability to resolve matters for clients and management just therefore focus on ways to creatively deceive customers to simply get them off the phone. As such rather than focussing on how to resolve glitches in the product, Access simply focusses on training how to use language to leave the customer feeling that they have been liostened to although knowing their issue will not be resolved. There is in general a lack of acknowledgement for the work of the CSR in general by management. Unhealthy hours, coupled with poor pay and limited opportunities for the future. Micro-managed to the nth degree by managers who barely have a knowledge of the products they're meant to be maintaining.

Pros

I like my direct supervisor and co-workers. The fact that they are owned by MasterCard gives me hope for the future, but after waiting for radical changes for over a year I am quickly loosing hope.

Cons

Lack of senior management support for the success of the business. People are set up to fail. No career advancement. Horrible HR function. Terrible compensation packages. No sense of urgency. Myopic thinking is the norm.

Pros

Some incredibly talented employees and good characters whose careers could flourish outside of this environment.

Cons

-Heavily Micromanaged by executive leadership - its their way or the highway -Poor salary - very underpaid -Very poor work-life balance, its not ok if you cant join a 10pm call because of illness...(source=experience) -Internal morale is at an all time low because of the above points which results in, at times a poor and hostile working environment. -Sometimes operates unethically. The steer can more often than not be "whatever you have to do to make the client happy or to win the business...do it"...Including dodging the truth or just flat out lying. -No real opportunity for progression.
