Pros

a lot of overtime available, bonus if you make goals, 16 years of job security, they won't be going out of business anytime soon. they have 6 call centers and you can transfer your job with little effort

Cons

they hire a lot of people who don't do their jobs and don't fire them , most people get termed due to attendance issues. They say that you can move up easily but if you don't do it when you first start then don't bother later on because you'll already be making the base rate for most of the training and temp supervisor positions within your 3-4 years then it's a lateral move for more work and no more pay.

Pros

Room for advancement and bonus's at all employee positions

Cons

After becoming a supervisor, development and assistance seemed to be very unorganized. In the 1 year that I was a supervisor, I reported to 6 separate OM's who all had different ways of doing things. Also, eventually I was laid off after things got slow. I was not even offered to be demoted.

Pros

Decent pay with little experience required. Starting pay $11/hr, nights pay a little more. When overtime is available, you can make serious amounts of bank if they offer additional incentives. You might even see Supervisors taking calls during incentive OT! Voluntary time off during slow periods. Mostly positive environment, appreciating employees as "Superheroes". Lots of Comic fans/geeks/nerds/cosplayers to make friends with, even in upper management. Casual dress requirements (except on client visitation days, no jeans). Company hosts prize giveaways/fun events in attempts to keep employees happy during peak periods when tensions are high, mandatory OT is a thing, and people are starting to drop like flies.

Cons

***No cameras in the main call center area to record inappropriate actions of other employees/supervisors.*** Nobody calls roadside happy - ever. Your most lighthearted calls will likely be lockouts, but aside from the unicorn-rarity lovely customer - you can expect to endure verbal abuse from customers all day, every day. You may not disconnect, regardless of how belligerent they are being. If they hang up on you, you must call them back three times (so they can scream at you more) and leave a message if they don't answer. Mandatory overtime during Summer/Winter. You may be "voluntold" to train and become a dedicated Agent for a program that is not well managed (ie: AVIS Budget). Having to keep a close eye on your payroll to make sure that your pay is correct, especially during incentive overtime periods. It's freezing in the building year round. You are either "in" or you're "out" with the upper management cliques. Promotions are prioritized to the favored, not particularly to the best qualified candidates. (Not biased, but watched it happen to multitudes of coworkers).
