Pros

- Reasonable, understanding environment in comparison to many call centers - Monthly bonuses, based on stats - Good benefits

Cons

- Base wages are low, particularly considering the workload and restrictive hours. - Yearly raises are negligible, considering the low base pay. - Once you're in support, they want to keep you there. Moving around the support department is relatively easy but moving anywhere else is incredibly difficult. They would much rather hire from the outside than let you move to another department. This is not a position to take if you want to get your foot in the door for another department. - With management, it often feels like there the left hand has no idea what the right hand is doing

Pros

- Good benefits - Secure positions (they don't fire people to trim the budget) - Excellent facilities - Flexible work-from-home policy in most departments (as long as you aren't abusing it) - Fun activities for the whole family (I'm a fan of the movie nights on the lawn)

Cons

- Management is moving backward, not forward. - Promotions are given based on who you are friends with. - There is a severe lack of diversity especially in management. - Once they have made up their minds, senior management won't listen to concerns or suggestions. But they don't give you a chance to express your concerns or suggestions before they make up their minds. - There is a lack of communication across departments. People are duplicating work because no one is talking to their counterparts in the rest of the company. - The product release is driven by development. This might be a pro if you are a developer. But for marketing, sales, implementation, QA, documentation, training, and support, it is a pain in the neck. The company doesn't look good if you are learning about a product feature for the first time when a customer asks you a question about it.
