      It's Okay. Don't expect pay incentives or raises

      Pros

      Type A people work here. Lots of motivated, hard-working employees. A bit stressful, but the right team and manager make all the difference.

      Cons

      Don't expect to get a yearly pay raise! Not even with a stellar performance review. They gave a small (1%) raise last year but only due to complaints and low moral. You work two years at a place, meet all your goals, and only get .50 cent raise. They don't even offer bonuses. Instead, They spend tons of money on company lunches, pizza days, raffles, t-shirts, etc. On some level, it's nice. But with the ever increasing cost of living and inflation , I'm sure many employees would appreciate if some of that money could go into their pockets. There is no motivation to want to grow and stay.

      Pros

      They pay on time and have good parking benefits (so if that is all then you know the cons will be bad)

      Cons

      This is the only place I have worked in the last 25 years that made me sign an agreement that I would not wear jeans to work unless the day was was "authorized" to do so. This is just a sampling of the ridiculous workplace requirements.

      Overall, a MEDIOCRE Job Experience

      Pros

      Schedule somewhat flexible (depends on manager). KPIs clearly defined. Business casual dress code. Great office space located in the Plaza of the Americas (Downtown Dallas). Adjacent to public transportation, DART's Pearl Station.

      Cons

      Minimal training (1 week) that didn't focus on the important aspects of the position. Daily call/talk time requirement (Ex: 115 calls and 3 hours of talk time a day minimum - if you have less than 3 hours of talk time, you would be required to make more calls.) Call strategy - required to call same person multiple times a day, every day for several days until reached. You feel less like an educational counselor and more like a telemarketer. Multiple weekly meetings (1 on 1's and team meetings). Little to no room for advancement within department. Difficult to make lateral move within company. Low starting salary - minimal, if any, salary increases. Micromanaging management style (most not all).
