Pros
It's a job. We all need one. The people around you are good people. You will love the remaining CSR/A's you work with, and develop close friendships. The ones who have been there a while will help you through any of the inadequate, crappy training the supervisor who does the classes (although that has recently changed to someone else, and theyre good now) and over all, they are warm and friendly.q
Kontras
Everything. The pay raises are terrible and completely unfair. It all depends on who's friend you are there. I know one person there who had was on a final written warning, sat there and surfed MySpace, and had a foot out the door receive a 1.50 raise while others who were model employees got between .10-.34 cents. The benefits, although at one time amazing, are now expensive and terrible. There is a lead there, who has been in his position for 3 years, is now passed over by someone who has been there for 3 months. They promote people who are absolutely inept and know NOTHING, but as long as theyre friends with a supe they are in. If you suck up, you get anywhere you want, regardless of knowledge, talent, and ability. The office politics are terrible. I am there until I finish school. I have no love for the company and when I leave (or win the lottery) I am running so far away that the words "Lancaster" and "Maxwell" will be curse words to me. This is the most prejudiced and bigoted place of work I have ever been. Come here if you don't give a crap, don't mind being over worked, underpaid and made to feel like crap.
