Pros

Free Easy Mac, Tea, Oatmeal & Cup O Noodles Free Netflix Subscription

Cons

The people working here are so ridiculous and the trainer is straight from Sesame Street. I knew one of the first 6 people to open the center, and she had been laid off over a year prior to when I started. She had some horror stories, but I thought the pay would overshadow any hint of doubt I had. I made them aware of the fact that I was in school [college, obviously] prior to being invited to the interview, and they said that was fine & they'd work with me (I found out later that this is a complete lie). I went through training and everything with positive feedback. Only after that did it become an issue, and I was constantly pulled aside and berated. I am not going to quit school to slave away at a job that will last less than a year. They pulled me into random rooms around the call center and told me my "internet browsing privileges were being taken away during my breaks," because I looked up Netflix reviews. I was told that my face looked "sad and depressed." Well, of course it was after you pulled me into a room 3 times in one day trying to make me feel bad about going to school. They expect you to talk to 85-year-olds with Alzheimers that can't even remember their email address, let alone their name, and help them fix whatever issue they have in less than 5 minutes. Why is there free food? Why are there showers here? Why are there laptops for you to use? Because they want you to eat, sleep and breathe Netflix.

Pros

Great resume builder. Lots of strategy and information-sharing with all employees.

Cons

Extremely high involuntary (and voluntary) turnover that puts everyone on edge and lowers morale; people are afraid they might say/do one undesirable thing and get fired. People are very afraid of making any mistakes for fear of being fired bacause it happens so often and people often do not get a second chance.

Pros

Fast paced, benefits great, work with some really talented people, a company that everybody loves, pay above the norm,

Cons

You are always on the tightrope...if you have a supportive boss, you are okay, but if you have the wrong boss, you can and will be fired if you don't "fit" the "vision"....forces a compliance mentality and stifles some really great people from doing even more.
