Strong brand but poor tech and low pay

Pros

Great brand name recognition, very good benefits and PTO being a European Company

Cons

The entire WAC is awful. Technology is either trash or non existent and you are doing something manual you never thought you would be in 2026. Low pay, overly micro managed call center that gaslights you into believing they are busy because you didnt take that extra phone call.
