Pros

Benefits are good- not great. The campus is beautiful! Free coffee!

Cons

1. Heavy volume call center- there is no pause between calls! The beep in between calls doesn’t even fully beep. You can’t get a sip of water in- it is that back to back. 2. You will be micro managed! They have a system in place that has your schedule mapped out for the upccoming months ahead! (Schedule adherence counts against you if you don’t follow it to the t.) Oh! And if you have a meeting planned or your computer doesn’t feel up to the challenge of running for the day- that’s counts against you too! 3. You will feel like a robot. You have to follow there call structure, miss any built point in the call structure and that excellent call goes to just satisfactory. It is very demoralizing to feel like you have done an amazing job and the customer was happy with your service, but Fidelity and there impossible metrics- not so much. 4. You are expected to know everything! There is a chat where you can ask questions and get the help you need, just keep in mind it’s one person helping a team of over 25+ people at once! It takes time for that person to answer the question, but all that time is counted against you in your metrics. They want 7 minute flawless calls (over & over) to the tune of there perfect script with nothing left out- even if it makes 0 sense to bring it up!

Pros

Can’t think of any pros

Cons

Due to capacity, No parking is available for associates. We have to park on grass patches throughout the campus, and spend 20-30 mins just finding the spot. On certain days, cafe runs out of food. And the worst part is finding a desk. It’s impossible to find a place close to your team mates. Your team members will be on different floors and buildings. But you still have to come in to office everyday, and live through this hell. We come in to office to do zoom meetings because can’t sit next to team mates due to capacity issues. Their campuses are cramped for space. More like a bustling fish market in an Asian capital city. Managers threaten to cancel bonuses and promotions if we don’t accept this situation. Managers are happy with this as well. Because they want to downsize the company, and every manager is looking for an excuse to fire people. They lure people in with bonuses but use bonus as a blackmailing tool. If you don’t do this, we will take this percent off bonus. If you don’t do that, we will take this percent off bonus.

Pros

This was a great company to work for remotely

Cons

The higher ups of fidelity do not care about what their employees want in terms of job satisfaction. The RTO requirement is ridiculous for highly preforming employees. The requirement only affects the employees who actually care about their job and their stats. My manager is given no power to help accommodate us with work life balance and is solely a rule enforcer.
