Pros

work at home opportunity, when I was in the BT team it was a good opportunity.

Cons

they treat you like crap, they have weekly meetings in management on who they can fire and how they can fire that person, even when you are doing great. even when you are at a 96% or higher and meeting ALL the requirements and you have been on the same coaching plan a for 7 months straight because you supervisor says you are doing great. NO opportunity's for growth, unless someone dies or gets fired. IT was a running joke to see who would be fired next we ALL knew we would be fired. it was HELLL working there! I would recommend looking for OTHETR options if at ALLL possible it is the DEAVL.... You will loose your heart sole and mind...

Pros

-Fair pay -Great on-site amenities (gym, nice cafeteria) -Helpful and extensive training (4 weeks) -Flexible hours

Cons

-Aggressive middle management -Sales structure in customer service unrealistically enforced (Reps are responsible for customers continuing on to the sales portion of the call AFTER they've completed the call with the customer. In other words, if a customer hangs up or declines to complete a purchase, the rep is penalized by warnings, write-up, probationary work periods, and finally severance--all this prompted by something the worker has absolutely NO CONTROL over!) -FAR too much emphasis on pushing sales during what it's supposed to be a customer relations incoming call. So a customer calls in for an account balance and gets aggressively pressured to open a new credit account on top of the account they already have.

Pros

Discover has great benefits, knows the value of good leadership, and works hard to change what needs to be changed.

Cons

No matter how many benefits, bonuses, prizes or food is thrown your way, you still have a job on the phone seven hours a day. Working on the phone is very unpredicable.
