Pros

My colleagues made the job bearable as in most call centers I suppose. Also the free product loan is great to try out their newest gadgets. Good canteen its hot meals as well as sandwiches etc

Cons

Timed toilet breaks (max 1 hour per month), no socializing allowed in office, too much focus on quantities instead of quality, big turnover of staff (3-6 new people every month but no new desks needed...), very hierarchical, people are not happy (but at least everyone's not happy together)

Pros

Nice headquarters, good people, fun atmosphere.

Cons

Questionable C-Suite directives/policies. A lot of bureaucracy, and it's difficult to move new ideas forward.

Pros

- Near 0 threat of layoffs - Fitness oriented culture - Main office has many amenities and is very modern - Good benefits (Health, dental, vision, education)

Cons

- Highly discriminatory, constant meetings about missing hiring inclusion metrics required by law - Little to no opportunity for promotion due to average tenure being 15+ years. This means you will stay in one roll for at least 5 - 7 years for one promotion. - Required highschool gpa to be hired, even if you have a doctorate degree - All salaries are a minimum of 30% lower than the national average due to their "Benefits" - Extremely top heavy with a team of 5 people having 7 levels of management above them - Main motivation for team structure changes being caused by massive amount of retirements instead of growth
