Pros

Work from home Early schedule during training

Cons

100+calls in the Queue daily, call after call, mandatory overtime, and you are expected not to use acw or aux into anything. They don’t pay your earned pto when you no longer work there, you are just a number and is stressful. More than 3 call offs in 90 days and you get fired.
