Pros

Very smart people to work with and learn from, excellent benefits, great facilities, work hard and play hard corporate atmosphere, flexible vacation policy.

Cons

Big changes communicated well, but not always best communication day-to-day within teams. Tendency to run fast and fix problems later.

Pros

Great work environment - lots of fun people; managers are awesome, benefits are the best I've had. Casual dress code. Agents are rewarded for performing well. I have been here for 2 years and have seen upper management take many steps to improve communication, make changes based on agent needs and desires and make the overall work atmosphere less separtist that it has been in the past. There are some really brilliant minds here - both in management and on the sales floor. I love the fast-paced environment and constant change - it keeps me engaged and challenged and I have been very successful due to a positive attitude toward change and embracing every new challenge thrown my way.

Cons

Difficult to move up to corporate position - once a position is offered, pay scale is much lower - so no real motivation to move to a corporate position for less pay lots of agents do it just to get off the phones. Sales floor can be a pressure cooker - there are hourly, daily, weekly and monthly goals to meet so if you cannot handle the pressure, not a good place for you. As an agent, it can be difficult to get time off on short notice. I have not personally had this problem, but I have been here 2 years so I have senority. The only thing I really dislike is being given infractions for going a minute or 2 over break or lunchtime - I understand that there are folks here who need to be micro-managed because they take advantage, but would like to see a system in place where those agents who are punctual and take their time management seriously are rewarded. We used to have a perfect attendance bonus in place quarterly - would like to see that back in place. I have been here 2 years and missed one day of work due to illness.

Pros

One of the most fun and exciting places to work, its a very fast paced and upbeat environment. But at the same time were always striving for excellence in people and their performance. I can work a 12 hour day but it seems like only 4 hours with how fast the days go by. I started out in an entry level position doing sales and answering phones but there is such rapid advancement that I have proven myself and moved up throughout the company over time.

Cons

It would be nice to make more money here, but doesnt everybody want that at all companies?! The company requires a very flexible schedule for sales positions and is performance driven, so if youre not able to work with the company or apply the training you receive it may not be the best fit.
