Pros

Benefits Most of the MS leadership is quality, they understand their employees are exhausted and are working hard to keep them happy Great entry level position for college students wanting to get their feet wet

Cons

It feels as if you’re chained to your desk. Constantly correcting other people’s mistakes No growth No communication between departments Some leadership people do not know the product or processes/procedures Marketing is terrible Metrics are the most important stat, not the quality of the employee If you’re in MS, you better hope that you plan a trip fully 3-4 months prior to going (and that’s if you get lucky enough to get a spot), otherwise you will need to call out sick to be able to go on vacation Breaks are scheduled terribly which hurt people’s metrics If you miss your break and take it late, it will hurt your metrics. Lots of people skip out on these breaks because of this. Only given “30” minutes throughout the day (other than your breaks) to not be on the queues. But if you miss your scheduled time for breaks, that 30 minutes disappears quickly They teach us that we should care and build relationships with our customers, but only give us 5 minutes to do this. CSAT is another metric, understandable, but also subjective Metrics are graded on a curve, so if you like to only do half of the work to make sure your handle time with calls is good, you will be fine. Ops agents are treated like cannon fodder

Pros

New office, new name, same great company. Good growth opportunity where you can see your impact.

Cons

Not a huge con, but better snacks or catered lunch would be a plus.

Pros

Decent starting pay and some good teammates. The company is highly profitable and continues to grow. Opportunities to take on new responsibilities and expand your scope. Equity awards.

Cons

Over the course of several years, I have been given additional responsibilities multiple times without more compensation despite the company’s strong financial performance. While I’m happy to contribute, the pattern of increasing responsibility without recognition is a major demotivator, even to your most diligent employees. It's tiresome. It doesn't take much effort to make strong contributors feel seen and valued, and it's such a missed opportunity not to. The company frequently talks about culture and values, but there is infighting and rivalries between teams and individuals. That energy creates drama instead of collaboration and leads to repetitious mistakes. Good people — especially top performers — eventually leave because they can.
