Pros

You do meet some unique people, while working for this company.

Cons

How do you take a call center that was once unique and cared about it's employees, and turn into a demoralizing job, where employees are unhappy and stressed out? The answer is you sell it to Qualfon. It has been almost a year since Qualfon acquired CSG, and the company is a former shell of what it once was and is becoming progressively worse, the company when it first began boosted itself on being unique and having fun while working, and boosted itself on NOT by measuring employees by the numbers or metrics, but focusing on the individual employee in the seat and their needs, putting the employee and employees first, before the needs of the client. All of that has changed, the managers that are hired only care about metrics, to the point where they will humiliate employees if they do meet their numbers, they no longer try to work with employees who are struggling, and many of the things that CSG was known for and stood for are subtly disappearing. Campaigns are at the mercy of the clients now, rather than CSG or Qualfon having any say in what goes on behind it's doors with it's employees, because they are scared to lose their contracts; Before CSG negotiated with clients for the sake of its employees and not the other way around. CSG also had a very low turn over rate, when I started three years ago, there were employees who had been there for a good five years, when the company started, and even up until a year ago, many of the employees that were hired around the same time as I was, were still working there. Now employees who were with CSG in the beginning are leaving, even new employees leave within a few months now, sometimes even weeks, so the turnover rate is going up since Qualfon's acquisition. Managers who cared about their employees and their jobs are leaving, because they are so stressed out with Qualfon and the way that it does business, instead they are being replaced with managers and supervisors who only got their position due to either nepotism or favortism, every person in my department who is in some form of upper management, is each other's drinking buddy and that cannot be a coincedence, because of this practice, people who would benefit from advancement get passed over. We were told that CSG was going to stay, and that all that was changing was our name, and that Qualfon understood our culture, but almost a year since the acquisition that is simply not true.

Pros

Decent pay. The option to work from home.

Cons

Vague onboarding/training program. Training for me was remote. They put you in a remote class with 14-15 others. Starting around week 2 or 3 of training, they try to work with everyone one-on-one while the rest of the class watches. And there is never enough time in the day to get to everyone in the class. If you make a mistake while training you, the trainers talk down to you in front of the class and instead of trying to help you.., they watch you struggle to figure out a problem, which wastes more time to get to other trainees. By the end of training, I learned absolutely nothing because I didn't get enough practice time. They fired me because they stated that I wasn't fast enough and that I "moved my mouse around the screen too much" and clicked around the screen too often lol. The company is an absolute joke. This is the same company where the trainers will tell you on the first day of class that "Slow is smooth, smooth is fast." But they still rush you. The trainers constantly came to work everyday exhausted and frustrated to the point where they would get annoyed and take it out on you. They would openly admit to us that they worked 60-70 hours a week. Which I should have taken this as a red flag and resigned immediately.
