Pros

You make friends. That's it.

Cons

Where do I begin? You will stress about this job. You will dream about missing targets. Think about this, and ask whether you want to work for a company that does this to their employees. Management said results don't matter for the first 3 months, which is a lie because I was sacked after 2.5 months because of my results. They put you on a 2 week Performance Evaluation Plan, which is basically a 2 week notice for you to start looking for a new job. There's no "plan" at all from management to help you improve. They hide everything from their employees, but even the team leaders in some cases. They have Australia's worst HR department. So much so they were probably hired through Centrelink. They are tactless, soulless, and opportunistic. We went through a slow period in the second half of the year, at times only taking 1 call which lasted only 15 minutes during an 8 hour shift. How can you possibly improve your stats when you're barely getting any calls? They make you casual because your easier to sack, and they call you "customer service" even though your actually "technical support" because it's cheaper to employ you (lower wage for employees). A poorly managed company, I'll be surprised if they last into 2019.

Pros

For the most part, I have an open availability. I do however, like not having to work on Sundays. Some campains allow for a 1 hour lunch break. The hiring process was fairly easy. Your equipment is provided. There is opportunity for advancement. They are helpful when it comes to license renewal. Calls are back to back which for me seems to make time go faster. Flexibly as to when you want to take your lunch break. You have to opportunity to assist people without having to feel it was rushed. Off all major holidays.

Cons

Rushed training that may leave some questions unanswered. I feel like I had to figure things out on my own. Getting the assistance you need to help a client took longer than it should, especially when the client is on on hold, waiting for your response. At times some trainers seem to be unprepared for the roll they have taken. Calls are frequently monitored. Not much time between calls. It can take too long to transition from on campain to the next after the project has ended.
