Pros

The people at Teletech are easy going and approachable. The 6 weeks of paid training are enjoyable. TT trainers do a great job of teaching you to work on the phone.

Cons

Although the training gives you confidence, that confidence is short lived as nothing can prepare you to deal with the enraged customers that call often. The Teletech where I was employed represented Bank of America. TT down plays the amount of "account holders" who threaten and try to con you into an account that doesn't belong to them. I was threatened with my life on a weekly basis. TT has coaches available to take these escalated calls, but they are spread out pretty thin. Employees are not allowed to hang up on said customers. No one can have that kind of verbal abuse without being affected by it.

Pros

The opportunity to work remote is the only pro.

Cons

I rarely leave negative reviews, but my experience here was frustrating enough that I feel it’s important to share for others considering employment. The company suffers from major disorganization and a lack of consistent policies. Expectations frequently changed without clear communication, making it nearly impossible to feel confident in your performance or job security. Metrics were unrealistic and difficult to achieve, especially given how understaffed the team was. Instead of addressing staffing issues, the pressure was pushed onto employees. Compensation does not match the workload or expectations. Employees are underpaid for the level of performance demanded, and benefits are disappointing. One of the biggest concerns is that earned PTO, vacation time, and sick time are not paid out, which feels unfair and misleading. Management practices were also questionable. Employees were required to be on camera, which felt excessive and unnecessary for the type of work being performed. Overall, there was a lack of trust and professionalism in how employees were treated. This role could have been much better with proper organization, fair policies, and realistic expectations, but unfortunately, it fell far short.
