Pros

Excellent benefits package. Decent salary not the best in the industry but no the worst. Very flexible sometimes you can work from home if you need to. Company has a good reputation and is well known, everyone loves Snoopy.

Cons

A small group of employees located in the larger offices get all the special project assignments that help lead to advancement. No clear path is established for employee growth. Reviews are set up so you always end up at a satisfactory level no matter how great you perform.

Pros

-Holiday cubicle/team competitions -causal environment, too casual - yes answering phones, but people literally came in with stuff I wouldnt even wear to bed. -good benefits

Cons

-high turnover, its all about calls calls calls -stuck in cubicle for 8 hours a day, your timed when you go to the bathroom or if you get up to do something since you have to log out of the system -better learn to type fast and in MET code. -every call is recorded and can be pulled and you get graded on 5 calls and then they review with you, I actually got a review saying that I was too nice in a call? that was a first...
