Pros

Pay out if you can get lucky in all of their multiple categories and not have people cancel (again, comes to luck)

Cons

• Reps are required to follow a verbatim script, which leaves no room for flexibility or personal connection with customers. Deviating from the script is often punished or criticized. Leadership feedback has shifted from being constructive to overly critical, with mixed messages about what is expected (but with little clarity on what that looks like in practice). • There is a culture of assuming the rep is at fault whenever a sale doesn’t close, even when the customer clearly isn’t interested or able to proceed. • Metrics and performance expectations have been lowered, which makes it more difficult to succeed and adds unnecessary stress to the role. • Turnover has increased as more reps struggle to meet the changing demands and constant pressure. • The environment has become increasingly discouraging, making it difficult to stay motivated or confident in your work. • Work-life balance suffers when you’re constantly second-guessing if you’re “pitching wrong. And getting consistently blamed no matter how great of a month you had. It’s NEVER enough

Pros

Beyond Finance truly stands behind its leadership team and agents. There is a strong support system in place, and upper management genuinely listens to feedback and provides resources necessary for us to succeed. Whether an employee or client opportunity... one doesn't outweigh the other and are both equally important here at Beyond. The collaborative environment makes it incredibly rewarding to coach and mentor team members, helping them develop their skills and hit their performance goals.

Cons

None at the moment as this is a great company that encourages career and opportunity growth!

Pros

Good pay and benefits, remote.

Cons

Horrible training. It's disjointed and hard to follow, basically consisting of a handful of PowerPoint presentations; no mock calls, limited shadowing, or anything else you would anticipate as part of contact center training. There are NO standardized SOPs. No centralized resources or knowledge management system. Extreme micromanaging. If you are 16 minutes 'idle' you get a disciplinary point ('idle' is measured by phone calls and moving to new accounts, NOT keystrokes, mouse clicks, or any sensible metric). The primary metric is hours on the phone. However, you, the employee, cannot see your total call time on the soft phone system. I was told contradictory information as to how this was measured. In fact, leadership was extremely cagey when questioned about metric calculations, going so far as to tell me "there isn't really a formula," for MATH. There is ZERO positive culture. You can't take even a moment to get to know your coworkers.
