Pros

Very little. For new graduates or those with no industry experience it's a great way to get your foot in the door and start learning.

Cons

The Company does not have enough staff to service call volumes and tasks. This regularly means management are seeking employees to work overtime resulting in fatigue. The Company does not recognise employees beyond paying overtime rates at which time they consider they owe nothing further to the employee, no gratitude, no recognition for service when salary reviews are done etc. Salary reviews happen but don't expect to be included in the review process. You simply be told yes or no. Salary increases in advice are solely on if you answered enough calls, got a good score on call assessments (which are not always done), and if you completed tasks on time (which could be put in your name and already over the set SLA). The salaries are not competitive. The Company has high turn over and currently losing their most experienced and knowledgeable employees first, leaving the Company because they are getting offers $20k - $40k more than paid at Employsure/Peninsula, with better work life balance. The Company will say engage.ent of the current workforce in high but this is a lot of new staff and the Company does not regularly complete staff engagement surveys. Management are will to listen to grievances and feedback but rarely is anything accomplished by this. Instead you'll be told they understand and can see your point of view but the decision is made higher up and out of their hands.

Pros

Plenty of tea/coffee breaks.. once you get the job done Recognition on doing well from directors to managers alike Unbelievable work trips where we’ve been spoilt by the best hotels free nights of drinks food etc And hanging with the biggest and brightest Excessive targets keep you in line may be a pain at times but they’re tolerable Been there for too long at this stage but I’m pulling in over 70/80k and for the work that’s in it they have me their for life until they decide otherwise

Cons

New targets are a stress less money for the same reward Now can’t complain getting 6k+ a month but still come one up it to 3% after 20 deals a month and that’s fair
