Pros
Location: Lisbon and Portugal are absolutely, breathtakingly stunning. As for work, it entirely depends on what project you're working for.
Cons
Just one word of warning for those choosing to be housed in Teleperformance apartments, as absolutely no one will tell you this: You apartment will not be contractually guaranteed. When you sign the contract, your monthly wages will be listed at the reduced rate, but at no point will it say that your rent is part of your monthly compensation. The rent agreement will not mention this either. What this means is this: - Should Teleperformance want to fire you, they will have to respect workers' rights regulations, e.g. give you notice of 30 days etc. This does NOT apply to your apartment. They can kick you out with just 3 days' notice, without warning, and without compensation if they so choose, as it is not explicitly mentioned in your work contract. They will not tell you this, not even when you sign the contract. They leave you to figure this out on your own. -If you ever want to move out and live on your own, you're not legally speaking entitled to the higher wage. To be fair, I've never heard of any problems here and they usually adjust pay without problems. Just be warned that this is not a contractually guaranteed right. It's simply a promise on Teleperformance's part. -They can move you to a different apartment at any time and for any reason. -There's a reward of 150 Euros for ratting out housemates who broke the rules. You had guests after 10pm? Better hope none of your up to 7 housemates needs 150 quid.
