Great Salary Good Benefits Very Interesting job

Some managers are very unprofessional, they lack some management skills but still continue to get promoted without any proper training which creates a negative work enviroment for employees as you cannot relay on your manager to do their job which affects you directly. Same with SMEs, some seemed to be annoyed to be asked for help (which is their job), and they seemed to always have a different answer, if you got a bad instruction from them, the consequences fell on you, and they still continued to get promoted to different positions

Good benefits, diverse working environment, hybrid work flexibility, decent work-life balance

Slow decision making, office politics, inconsistent manager quality, managers did not spend much time training skills and had to learn on the job mostly, not much opportunity to get to know team/office colleagues

Good opportunities, a lot of learning potential, great benefits

Long hours and intense pressure,

Good training provided and good perks

Not much career progression internally

Good work life balance, hybrid setup, a lot of focus on training and career development

Haven't experienced a con so far

Good work life balance, great people and training

Not much progression, old systems

Some of the people are great

Training is horrible, you will be working on your personal time no work life balance at all!!!.

Good learning ground, opportunities for internal transfer

Working hours can be long

Good Benefits, Good Volunteer Opportunities, Great Sick time and PTO to start out.

Pay raises are meager and performance based, Even being the top performer in a department can still give you a $0.75 raise or less. New metrics added at least twice a year and even the good Team Leads can barely describe how they're calculated. It's a huge hit or miss on the TL's since you can either get one very caring about you and your growth or someone who want's only performance and can't empathize with you at all. Being forced to a new department is almost a guarantee where you handle tougher calls with minimal training, no pay change, and less time off phones since you're a jack of all trades. There is no real reason you can be picked to move either, a Colleague who has as much skill and more can still be in the base department despite them being a perfect fit to move. Easier for them to get pay raises and to move up since they don't have to adapt to the changes forced upon them without any real explanation.
