Pros

Impressive CEO, management, they are all hard workers and if you are a hard worker (which is not that hard) just put in 40 hours and follow there training, that is what is making me successful.

Cons

None at all, I have worked for other debt companies and none have ever compared to this company.

Unmanageable Workload and Little Guidance

Business Outlook

Pros

Clear targets and structured goals.

Cons

- The pressure to perform was unrelenting while guidance and support were almost nonexistent - Expectations were impossible to meet - Priorities changed constantly without warning - Feedback focused only on results instead of helping employees improve - The pace was exhausting, leaving no time to recover or actually learn - Over time the crushing demands erased any sense of achievement

A lot of empty promises, lead by used car salesmen

Business Outlook

Pros

Not much to list here, but a lot of my peers are great people

Cons

The pay is a joke, they tell you that the average rep is making 6-10k when only about 10% of the entire is earning a bonus and they top ones are barely making 10k most are working for just the 17/hr. Everyday you are told its going to get better but after a year its only gotten worse. No coaching from leadership, just a review of your numbers and told to do better. Constantly told if you want to earn commission you have to work overtime so work life balance isn't a thing. I came in with such high expectations and have been let down every turn of the corner.
