Pros

Pay is good and you learn a lot. You get to switch supervisors/teams, which helps with the monotonous work.

Cons

No work/life balance (shifts are 7am-5pm, 8am-6pm, or 9am-7pm…you always work more than that though because you are given so much work). You are overworked and barely have time to go the restroom. Sitting down the ENTIRE time you are at work with your headset on ready to take incoming calls and make outbound calls every chance you get (I'm talking about 60 inbound/outbound calls a day that do not last a minimum of 5 minutes). So many factors weigh in which causes so much stress (number of calls made, contact percentage, call quality observations…you are basically harassing contractors to get them on the phone to complete something on their account or subscribe to ISN). This job can make you a miserable/stressed mess by how much is expected out of you.

Pros

- Lots of people your age. Easy way to make friends post grad - Great pay and benefits - Free lunches - FANTASTIC training team!!

Cons

- Extremely high turnover due to burnout and unrealistic expectations - Work life balance is very dependent on your team and supervisor. I was lucky to have a great team, but spent some late nights. Other teams work long hours and have a significantly higher work load. - Travel opportunities are great, but sometimes it can be too frequent and you can't really say no. - Lots of ways to give feedback, but it is not anonymous. If you say something negative in feedback, it would be used against you. - It is very hard to get promoted past senior Associate due to the limited amount of promotions available. I know several people who were told they would get a promotion and did not. - Lots of happy hours - if you didn't go, you were lame
