Pros

-Stericycle handed out overtime like candy so if that is what you're after then the job is perfect for you. -The call off policy was pretty lenient.

Cons

-Management was terrible. It was more of a "do what I say" and don't ask questions kind of thing even though they claimed that their door was always open if you needed to talk. -Work/life balance. The call center is 24 hours so if you don't mind working any day of the year, including holidays then I guess this isn't a con for you. When you first apply, they ask you to write down your availability. If for some reason you needed to change that then it was a huge issue and sometimes they'd deny your request to change your availability. You'd have to show proof that you actually couldn't work those shifts anymore. -Stressful job -The pay was terrible for the amount of stress. and the raises were a joke.

Pros

Great coworkers that get along with each other.

Cons

High turnover rate. Always changing the commission structure to not favor the sales reps. Shady sales tactics EX: not telling customers the prices and pressuring them into signing contracts that auto renew and have price increases. Current customers hate the company because they're getting ripped off. No job security, I've seen reps get let go that were doing well but had an off month because the company overall was missing their last couple of quarters. Bad training and they make you move teams all of the time.

Pros

The people are the only thing that makes the job worthwhile. Also I like the three day weekend. It makes the time worth while

Cons

The supervisors are very demeaning. The pay sucks and the hours suck. I am on third shift but I would rather be on first shift.
