Pros

Great benefits, amazing co-workers, great ergonomics, schedule doesn't change much, company usually has good intentions. Metrics are reasonable to get a quarterly bonus (put it in your 401k so it's not taxed away) Attendance policy has become much better. (Find a good team lead and try to stick with them)

Cons

Hard to move anywhere. Pay doesn't increase that much, can be up to 5% yearly but even if your a top performer, some Team leads will find a reason to make it 2%...can be back to back and overwhelming with no Sr. agent support anymore. Don't trust anyone. You get in trouble for doing things for the customer on their account when they ask you to. No sick time, if your sick you lose pto for the year. Cell phone police! We help customers on the app on our phone and get yelled at for having it out...what are we in school???

Pros

Good work, lots of AI experiments, AI innovation, latest tech stack, Co-workers are very co-operative and helpful. Most AI tools are still unlimited.

Cons

Some teams are over-working due to smaller teams as a result of recent layoffs. Office perks (like catered food, snacks) are dwindling every quarter even though company wants every employee to be 3 days a week in office. Company wants 80 percent code to be generated by AI but no clear guideline how to achieve that.
