Holiday pay No college degree required Relaxed dress code

Minpunten

- Software is outdated and always puts the wrong words on the screen forcing you to make too many corrections - Sitting in front of computer screens and hard chairs for hours at a time *Headaches from looking at a computer screen all day *Blurry Vision from looking at computer screen for hours at a time *Back Hurt from chairs *Chairs Stink and so do some of the people - Keyboards and computers not taken care of properly (crumbs and hair in keyboards, keys missing, labels missing on keyboards, sticky screens, unclean working areas) - Dragon (voice recognition software) Sucks: Works differently on different computers, antiquated software that does not recognize simple and common words and phrase, but is blamed on CA not enunciating enough. - Calls Sucks: Depressing calls, incoherent callers, tiring and boring, bigoted callers especially during election time. - Being monitored daily and can be docked for call quality even if call is an hour long and your voice is going and they talk nonstop. - Developing Useless Habits: No capitalization allowed, no minor error correction allowed and docked for it if you do (hard to do for anyone who passed elementary school English) - Pay for Parking - Progression Within is possible but not worth it. - Amount of Oversight is Annoying: Little to No Freedom and stopping to get water or going to the bathroom goes against you and hurts adherence which is supposed to be at 95% for the month. - Short 30 minute lunches - Policy Violations: No info about what counts as a violation beforehand (lunches that are 29 minutes instead of 30 counts as a violation) - People are Zombies from Being Here So Long - Can get suspended or reprimanded for having private conversations that eavesdroppers are listening to even if it is not racist, bigoted, or intentionally offensive and between 2 people talking among themselves. - Too Much Uncertainty With Captel: Not Going to Be Useful in 10,15, 25 years from now; Dependent on Gov't Funding - Dumb time clock rounding that they use

Pluspunten

Co-workers; schedule; location; not a job you take home with you; can read, draw, do puzzles, etc between calls

Minpunten

Micromanaged; not great pay; point system for call-ins/sick days; not good for your brain - years later my audio attention is terrible because of the skill of listening to the calls and captioning you have to learn to tune out what is being said and just caption on auto-pilot but then that leaks into other parts of your life like zoning out on conversations, movies, etc.
