Pros

Pay is ok Benefits are ok If you find the right people, the people are great

Cons

They way overwork employees, expecting them to hit ridiculous goals for calls per day. You cannot effectively resolve customer issues in 5 minutes or less. Sometimes, they require a lot more time, and if you're focused on first call resolution (something they push), then you need time to make sure you resolve issues so they don't call back. There's also not a ton of job security. You're always worried about whether or not you'll lose your job if you can't make it out of the bottom 20% for something as stupid as referring people over to get a homeowner's quote, only for them to hang up while on hold with that department, or have the rep you transfer to tell them they're not eligible (something the auto system says they are). It's a deck stacked against you most of the time. Oh, and after I left, everyone was forced to give up their shift and bid for a new shift that was either a 4 day work week, or they got switched to nights when they were on days for YEARS. People have to COMPLETELY rearrange their lives around stuff like that, but the C-Suite could not care less.

Pros

Strong opportunities for career growth Many people are willing to mentor and support others without expecting anything in return Supportive culture, even from people who may not know you personally Increased focus on education and development, especially for leaders More company activities at the local office, which has been a welcome change Fun associate engagement opportunities like escape rooms, art activities, games, and food events So many opportunities for recognition

Cons

There are still some areas where the company appears to be rebuilding trust and confidence Change is noticeable and appreciated, but some improvements are still in progress Feedback has clearly helped shape recent changes, and it will be good to see that progress continue
