Pros

Remote work in an economy where remote work is rare. Hour lunch.

Cons

Where do I start? I finished their training to learn the Amdocs system and how to do installations, and we almost NEVER do installations. I signed up to be a Technical Engagement Specialist but I'm expected to do just Billing for months, and NEVER get rid of the Billing Queue. I am not here to argue with people over money, I'm here to fix problems with people's equipment, why am I arguing with people over bills? Customers are awful. Every call is different, sure, but they tend to not be covered by the training. People will get mad over a $2 charge for paper invoices, argue with you about contracts, the Launch teams say stuff that they can't back up. Wages are barely sustainable. $20 an hour, you'll need to be at least a two income household. Only take this job if you have NOTHING ELSE going for you.

Pros

Lot's of training and my manager at the time really cared about what we were doing and how we could best assist our customers

Cons

Teams were very segregated, even within your own team it would feel like pulling teeth if you asked in chat for help with something. I would sometime go against what a "supervisor" said we should do as it just did not sit right with me. Example : Senior citizen customer who had limited mobility was moving out of service area (her kids were moving her closer to take care of her) but she could not physically walk around the house to collect/disconnect hardware that belonged to Hotwire. My manager was on time away, and another manager wanted me to tell her if she doesnt she would face up to $300-500 in Unreturned Equipment Fees and that there was nothing else we could do. I was not happy with that at all, I was able to reach out to the on site manager for that community and they were more than happy to stop by that customers house and help collect things. The poor lady was in tears for how we were able to help.
