Pros

Friendly atmosphere and since it is a chat center there is more opportunity for communication with fellow coworkers. No sales.

Cons

The expectations for performance were unreasonable for a $10/hr job. Once the "honeymoon period" of the new center wore off the true colors came out. Career advancement was promised but after the first wave of hires, no one else was promoted for over 9 months despite the constant need for more QA and support staff. Goal posts were constantly moved and what you accelled at one month was no longer important the next month and you could be close to being fired within three weeks even when you were still doing the same quality of work. Integrity and honesty didn't matter as long as the scores were high. I could have 25 chats in one day, if only 9 left surveys, and if one was a no/yes rather than a yes/yes, that would mean a fail for the day regardless of the nature of the chat that failed. This is a revolving door job and the management doesn't care. I guess when you only pay $10/hr anyone had a shot to fail.

Pros

No pro besides it was a job..

Cons

Management has a wolf pack mentality and bully the "pee-ons." Very unprofessional and unorganized management that would shoo you away like a fly with their hand because they are too busy to even open their mouth and speak to me like a person. I started this job when I was 20, my first real adult job and I started with high hopes. Even though I exceeded and liked the actual job tasks at hand. This place broke my spirit over the course of 4 years of loyalty, hard work, and dedication. Being talked to in a condescending way and bullied by the person i was to go to for help in that exact matter. So many reports to corporate...they cover it all up. Manager put her hands on me the day I quit. Never will I work for her or the company that didn't provide me with a stable working environment.

Pros

Quasi-flexible scheduling, Will hire anyone. Okay place for those fresh out of high school & live at home with no bills and financial responsibilities.

Cons

Management/Supervisory staff have propensity for thuggishness & bullying & will write you up for the slightest infraction. Members of leadership ie: Quality Management, Supervisors, behave & write as if they barely finished high school. There is absolutely no professionalism whatsoever: a categorically inane, and asinine company culture. They do not not like College Graduates. Most supervisors and leadership should be fired - a very lackluster environment.
