Pros

good pay, BEST CO-WORKERS, great management and an all around great environment. I enjoyed working here and wish I would've handled things a little differently now that I think about it. The best call center I've worked at... and I've worked in 4.

Cons

I was terminated for job abandonment. I was involved in a domestic violence situation with my partner, called in and let the attendance line know. Cons? No direct number to mgmt. So I had to have the attendance clerk ask him to call, didn't receive one. I needed to be here for my kids during this time. I called out a few days and went in to explain to my mgr what was going on at home (although I'm sure he knew after I told the attendance line) but the papers to separate me from the company were already submitted. well, everything happens for a reason right? Perhaps there's something better out there! Not too many cons, if anything I had more complaints for the company who's campaign I was in than actual Sutherland.

Pros

Remote work and great coworkers

Cons

Extremely low pay for the amount of work and the type of calls that you have to deal with. Lots of mircomanaging. Unrealistic metrics. Lack of knowledge and competency from leadership because at no point should your workers know more than you about the job itself. No care for unforseen life circumstances that affect your ability to work. Very stressful and mentally exhausting which often leads to burnout. No recognition for hard work and meeting metric goals. Too hard to get PTO approved. Tech and internal systems are always breaking which affects your ability to do your job. No one is ever on the same page which often leads to being given incorrect information. No room for growth or opportunities to go into other roles. Benefits are not that great. Mid health insurance plans, no 401K match, no parental leave, and no internet reimbursements. They'll sell you a fairytale in training so BEWARE.
