Management is flexible about allowing missed time to be made up. Managers are friendly and easy to work with. Benefits are competitive.

Pros

Good pay and great benefits. That's Where It ends.

Cons

Too many incompetent bosses. From the office managers to the district manager. Nothing to work for but a check. They will run you into the ground and smile while they're doing it. Guys are quitting left and right and they still can't figure out why. That says it all. What works on paper, doesn't always work in the field. They're still figuring that part out.

Ridiculously High Turnover

Pros

Not a single pro can be said for this Hellhole.

Cons

The "Suburban Contact Center" AKA Glorified Answering Service is the WORST place I have EVER worked at. You talk about being a Corporate Slave. They monitor your every move in that Hellhole and your're based on a Point System. You acquire both positive and negative points and if you get so many negative points , (ie: calling in equals 2 neg points) you're terminated. God forbid you fall ill that's 2 negative points. If Suburban expects perfect attendance maybe they should consider hiring robots. Then they wonder why they have a ridiculously high turnover rate.
