              Cons

              The company in sales focuses on all calls. If you're not 100% on top, you're most likely going to be fired. You have to sell every time even with current customers that call in.

                        Able to work remotely and choose a preferred shift.

                        Cons

                        Every minute is micro-managed and it is pathetic. Their VM can't handle the employees' workload and repeatedly freezes. Management wants to talk about "your metrics," but doesn't want to disclose the metrics of the VM, software, and resources utilized to perform the task and resolve the issues.

                      Senior Resource Manager

                      Last Thursday and Friday I interviewed with 2 hiring managers for 2 different companies. Both of them said they’d like me to progress to the next interview and the recruiter would reach out. One company said they wanted a offer out this month so it would be a quick process. I sent thank you emails and references. I haven’t heard from either recruiter. I had the recruiter screening and hiring manager interview just days apart, I thought I’d hear back by now. Thoughts?!

                      Just heard that some companies are going to start paying people for their time if they are asking you to do a presentation or something! Does anyone think this will become a thing?
