Pros

It was great for my first 10 years. You were assigned agents, trusted to make business decisions, annual reviews and raises were good

Cons

It is a shell of the company it once was. The hubs didn't turn out the way they had planned. Now they are outsourcing jobs and saying it's to keep the customer happy with better prices. The employees mean nothing now. Ask why the CEO gets 24 million dollar bonuses if things are so bad.

Pros

(At the time) Fair pay and predictable bonus structure They were pretty good at covering travel expenses and paying them back quickly Diverse workforce & diversity initiatives Fun and funny coworkers Opportunities for growth Again, this was all four years ago and has likely changed

Cons

(At the time and now, according to other comments) Arrogant to a fault Total lack of innovation & willingness to innovate Odd attachment to the company's past (which prevents progress) High number of veterans (20+ years) who are determined to get that retirement money, and therefore, are resistant to change and technology Heavy reliance on command and control management style Poor decision-making that leads to losses of all kinds
