What a great new atmosphere

Pros

I have worked for the same client for approximately six years. Just recently we had the privilege of becoming part of the ContactUS team. Let me start by saying the difference from what used to be is like night and day. It really helps to boost morale when the efforts the employees put forth, are actually acknowledge. We have gone under a complete makeover, from the energy of the building to the building itself. It's nice to enjoy actually coming to work again.

Cons

So far so good, I can't provide a con.

Pros

With ContactUs, I have the feeling that I matter, that the job that I do is measured and critical to the client's future. I have only been with ContactUs for 4 months and they have exceeded my expectations as a company.

Cons

The only thing that I can say, is the benefits are not the best.

Hey, thanks for the feedback! You are absolutely right in thinking and KNOWING that you matter. We are not successful as a company if we don't have highly dedicated and passionate employees like you... heck, our clients aren't successful without employees like you! Since you're still relatively new with ContactUS, definitely keep us in the loop on areas you think we can continue to improve. Feedback from the employees are of the utmost importance to us! We are currently reviewing all benefits as we near 2017 open enrollment. We are going to market for everything to make sure we present the absolute best option(s) to our employees and remain competitive in the market.

Low pay, poor leadership, no appreciation

Pros

I did meet some nice people while I was there and it started out good. But then the business changed.

Cons

The business model changed from a managed services provider to outsource call center after the first year. As a result, my role changed completely but I committed to the new responsibilities. The person I reported to went more than a month without meeting with, or even speaking to, me. When we did talk, his feedback was positive but I found out later he and other senior leaders were not happy with me. The site leader is more of a dictator/manager than a leader and decisions seem to be made without regard for impact to people. There is a lack of foresight and strategic planning, instead a "just get it done" mentality. I saw a total lack of appreciation for the people side of the equation. The main focus is to put up the "smoke and mirrors" to get new clients and cut costs in every way. Feels like a sweatshop.

Thank you for your candid feedback. It is clear we failed you and for that I am sorry. Our employees are our biggest asset and it appears we may have dropped the ball with opportunities for better communication. As with any business, we change to meet the needs of the market and industry and of course to remain competitive. Communication is a powerful tool and should be used daily. We have made great strides over the last couple of months to be more visible as a leadership team, engage in conversations with all employees and establish more formal meetings where we meet with employees to discuss business and share ideas with each other. We hope you have found success in your new venture!
