Pros

The work is fairly easy. Send people back to school right? Try to maintain numbers with leads that are provided for you.

Cons

Basically you are working as a telemarketer that helps the company "sell" private information of unsuspecting citizens to the highest bidder. This is done under the guise of sending people back to school when they are actually looking for jobs unbeknownst to the employee. Employees feel pressured to deceive potential clients into going back to school. These schools are not the top colleges in the education industry and could possibly go out of business at any time.

Pros

I've been there for a couple of months now and I love it. Its a really cool and down-to-earth place. Management is laid back and they're willing to work with you. If you're trying to make money, it will definitely happen. I'm making 17 bucks just to verify student's information and I've only been there since the beginning of the summer! They worked around my schedule. I dropped my other job as I'm getting paid way more! I can honestly say this is not for the weak but if you're a go-getter and not afraid of hearing no, you'll do well.

Cons

Breaks change and aren't the same everyday. Other than that, its cool.

Pros

Call center. Easy and repetitious tasks to make and receive calls to students to get them interested to go to college. Very laid back and casual environment. Team leaders are pretty cool and will work with you. You can pick up extra hours when you need to.

Cons

Almost no opportunities for advancement. Management is often disorganized and has their favorites. They can be unprofessional at times. Contests are usually rigged to benefit favorites. The pay is $10 an hour, so don't make a career out of it.
