Pros

Elongated lunch and snack breaks Salary offered looks good on paper

Cons

They say flexi working hours. Really ??one needs to stay in office until 7:30 even with no work. If you wish to leave early someday you have to mail everybody , inform the manager personally and what not. In terms of work, there is nothing like a domain. They say it's insurance but it's nothing more than sales and service of insurance. Working on outdated technologies US counterparts treat PGS counterparts with little or no respect. There may be exceptions though. The managers are bunch of idiots who know nothing except for keeping on eye on their teams in terms of where they go, who they talk to, who is spending more time in cafeteria and the list is endless. PGS has degraded a million times in last few years. With pathetic management, HR policies, they do nothing but spoil your career All prospective candidates should consider all this apart from their salary which looks flowery in the beginning.

Pros

Great opportunity to start a career. You can legitamitely move throughout the company starting with this role.

Cons

Bad contact center environment. Back to back calls every day. They only discuss call times and never what leads to the numbers.
