Pluspunten

Relatively flexible day - make your calls and stop by the branch every now and then and you're good to go.

Minpunten

You are micromanaged to death from recording detailed call notes, what your action steps are based on the call, and how you will do them. Managers then require "tasks" for each action step (i.e. call back Brian) - so essentially you are documenting every part of the job no matter how minute. Some managers seem pretty good and their employees like to work for them, mine was one of the worst managers I have ever worked for. Manages with scare tactics, has a "holier than thou" attitude, and over promises to her boss and expects her people to take the fall.

Pluspunten

Benefits are decent and reasonably priced. They offer a 401k match, BCBS insurance, FSA, HSA, dental, vision, life insurance, and accidental D&D coverage. They also do a 3‑to‑1 match for donations to non‑religious 501(c) organizations. There’s a big emphasis on volunteering, with plenty of opportunities to get involved. The building itself is beautiful, with a free on‑site gym, a coffee shop, real trees in the atrium, a waterfall, and a large cafeteria (though the food can vary). They’re also flexible about which days you come on‑site, depending on the team’s schedule. If I needed to switch a Monday for a Thursday, it was never an issue. My manager was also supportive of remote work on days when the weather made commuting difficult.

Minpunten

Admins do not get an annual bonus. They're really strict on Overtime, really weird about worrying about mini costs. Like they'll spend 50k on a week-long training but freak out if people want to rent a car while being in town. Can't buy lunch for this 3 hour meeting to cut costs, but we'll drop 10k on this other thing. It's also so unfair that some people get to work remotely and others are forced to come in 3 times a week, for the exact same roles. Every meeting is basically online, so it's just silly and a power trip.
