Pros

Communication of accurate information is poor. website almost always experiencing issues. Probably a great place to work if you are not in the call center. lots of employee appreciation 'activities'.

Cons

Not enough people in the so call 'chat' to answer reps questions. Getting different info from different TC/TL. Overall frustration with having to take customers' angry outburst for things you have no control over.most of time. pay is lower than average and pay raise is way less than a $1. high turnover as expected in call centers.

Pros

Before coming to work for Discover, I never saw (in person, at least) the C-level executives who led the companies I worked for. At Discover, the CEO, COO and other execs eat lunch elbow-to-elbow with everyone else. Beyond the company's congenial and accessible senior management, Discover actively supports and promotes corporate values such as volunteerism and respect (versus simply paying lip service to them), something I've personally witnessed via company-sponsored support of Chicago Cares, the Boys and Girls Club of Lake County, and other volunteering activities. I also appreciate the world-class campus I work at in Riverwoods, IL, with its on-site fitness center, gourmet cafeteria, basketball and vollyball courts, dry cleaning services and more.

Cons

Commuting to Riverwoods can sometimes be a challenge, particularly in winter, though such challenges are mitigated by management support of flexible work arrangements. As with any competitive company, deadlines sometimes require extra hours/effort, but those times simply make the generous paid-time-off (PTO) that much more enjoyable.
