Run and don’t look back

Pros

The pay was way over market for the position which should have been a red flag. Unlimited overtime. That’s about it.

Cons

Managers and directors are terrible. Most only have their positions based on building reputations.. not because of their skill or knowledge level. They have a serious problem in their manufacturing methods.. they are dated and neglected.. they do not care about anything but revenue and to just “keep the machine running” with out any regard of their growing obsolescence problem. Their strategies are deeply flawed. Avoid like the plague if your a working professional.. they are having serious financial problems and do layoffs every couple years. They moved me and my family from out of state just to lay me off a year later.. they do not care about waisting money or the lives they negatively impact with their incompetence . Worse company I ever worked for..

Overcoming the call center's bs

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Everyone, mostly, are very upfront and real with you. About 4 people who are TSR's I know in the call center work very hard and try to help the center achieve its goals for the month. Fun parties. Good Benefits. Very lax office area. Okay bonus's

Cons

I have a lot to say about this. There is a point system [full-time employees in the call center get 12 points a year] meaning 1 point a month. FMLA [in general] is a pain to deal with. Attempting to talk to your supervisor for issues within the call center is a major let down. They will tell you to report to your lead on duty and then it would go from there. It goes nowhere, ever. Back to the point system. If you're late [DOESN'T MATTER WHY YOU'RE LATE IF YOU WERE IN A WRECK OR HAVE A FLAT TIRE OR STUCK IN TRAFFIC] If you're 6 minutes late, you'll get a point. Period. Upper Management doesn't listen to criticism. They don't appreciate their employees, regardless if they say they do or not, it's never good. Too much work drama, too much vicious bs that goes back and forth. Management is 2 faced. Oh, and to get promoted or move out of the call center you need 6 points or below. You think you'll be able to maintain your points under 6, but it's hard. Leaving work early [without PTO] you've worked less than 1/2 your shift. You're getting a point. You leave after 1/2 your shift then you still get a .5 point. Buybacks are gone [use to be after 30 days of consecutively coming to work you get .5 points back] That's gone. No more buyback just yearly drop-offs. We are one of the lowest-paying call centers in GA. Starting at 13 an hour. It barely pays the bills. Trying to ask for extra hours is a pain. The center is opened 24/7 [ and no it's not a regular 9-5] We have shift bids every 3-6 months, it varies due to management not making up their mind.
