Pros

-Union that fights for you -Great pay and benefits for the position (again, thanks to the union, not the kindness of management) -Job security (also thanks to the union, management would fire everyone and replace them with contractors making minimum wage in a heartbeat if they could get away with it) -takes diversity in the workplace seriously -Potential to apply for better positions in PECO and supposedly get picked over outside candidates (ha) -ability to work from home since the pandemic, if you can meet certain increasingly strict requirements.

Cons

Where to begin? Recent renovations of care center shrank our desk space and took away numerous amenities like a relaxation room with massage chairs. Now it looks like any other open office with everyone crammed together with no privacy. More "modern" looking though! Form over function, baby! Constant micromanagement, going all the way to the top. Top executives regularly swoop in with new rules for care center agents, like use a certain piece of software that breaks every day 80% of the time or lose WFH privileges. Meanwhile, while you are being tracked and judged on everything, including bathroom breaks, you'll see higher ups regularly chatting it up in the hallways having a grand old time with their buddies. Act as beta testers for half-baked new software thought up by some overpaid outside management consultants who are better at making slick sales videos than functioning software. Constantly understaffed and think that the solution is hiring more underpaid contractors at vendor sites rather than hiring and training more regular employees. Treats employees like children and then wonders why all of a sudden turnover is suddenly vastly increasing, including amongst 20+ year veterans. Hiring process seems to take longer than the federal government. It took about 6 months from application to my first day Random urine testing, including for cannabis. So don't think you'll destress that way after work!

Pros

Work life balance was fair.

Cons

No training to do your job, if it is peer training….quit now. Long term employees are intimidated by new employees, and will use any method of sabotage to prevent you from gaining information to be successful to do your job.
