Pros

office environment and good recruiters to work with. pretty decent benefits not the best but better than some companies' benefits

Cons

some of the managers are too arrogant and hard to work with. They expec new employees to catch on to everything on 1 day. I as well as a few other employees were fired because the manager felt that we weren't right for the positions and we were some of the hardest working employees there.

Pros

Success with other departments - just not in mine

Cons

Complete bait and switch. I accepted this position under one manager, only to find out after resigning from my previous job that I would be reporting to someone else entirely. There was no meaningful onboarding, no training materials, and no support system in place. My manager openly stated that there was no monetary value in helping me succeed and made little effort to train or develop me. Requests to shadow and learn the business were dismissed in favor of keeping me on the phones. Instead of being set up for success, I felt actively prevented from growing. HR was equally disappointing. I raised legitimate concerns and never received a response. The organization talks about development and support, but my experience suggested otherwise. Joining this company was one of the biggest professional mistakes I have made.
