Weak effort of Management on improving quality of work life.

Business Outlook

Pros

Weekends off, pay is okay.

Cons

Many departments are more professional than customer care. Management plays favorites- they keep secrets to themselves and are not clear with employees. There is a level of power games they play with employees. Customer care treats employees like actual children. They make you feel like you should be greatful for an opportunity to work remotely- when at the end of the day you are saving them thousands of dollars.

Pros

Benefits. They are taxed. You might get a Sunday off!

Cons

Massive workload, totally non achievable goals , many layers of management. Far too many. Everyone lives like they are on an island. Long work hours and no overtime given. Really large stress factors in this broken company.

Pros

She's clearly smart, but extremely shrewd and piercingly cold - is in it only for herself. Everyone hates her and looking for their next job so they can escape her.

Cons

EVERYTHING. Manipulative, un-empathetic, nasty, nasty, nasty, belittling, dis-empowering, listens to know one other than herself, is surrounded by "yes-men" who will never challenge her as they know she'll fire them or find a convenient way to get rid of them.
