Pros

The people are great! You need to think about the role and what kind of people are going to fill it. I went for a Telesales role, and so the people that went for it were uneducated people, first jobbers, gap year and older people who wanted pocket money. The money is not great, for that type of job its excellent. We had an hourly rate plus bonus on the number of sales. On top of that there were random events and prizes as incentives, like paintballing, trips to amusement parks, tv's and even consoles! Also they actively try and get you involved in outside events. For example Friday nights in the pub and you can get together with people from other ICT teams. They don't mind if you bring extra people out, the more the merrier.

Progression. I went there and was 'overqualified'. I had 2 degree's (some people there didn't even finish compulsary education).I was good at sales and enjoyed that and the company. I primarily joined because it gave me flexibility to apply for graduate positions while having an income to pay off my student loans. However, when positions came out, I did apply but was rejected for them all. I mainly because the roles were made for people specifically. For example 'experience of monitoring calls' was required, there was only one person in the company who had that as part of their role... and they got the position. However, since I have left, people that started in the same 'batch' have gone on to become supervisors, team leaders etc. so maybe its not all bad... you just need to stick out the time.

Pros

In our department (Market Research), we don't have to betray our morals or even be conniving, as employees in marketing call centers are often encouraged to do. The atmosphere is more relaxed than other call center environments, and the work is not particularly hard, though it does require a certain temperament. The local management is pleasant to work with, and understanding of personal issues when necessary. In the long term, there are MANY opportunities to move upwards within the company; short term, there are hours available for any employee who chooses to do so; some employees work 60+ hours a week by choice.

Kontras

I sometimes get the feeling our center is something of a "red-headed stepchild." Our requests for supplies and equipment often fall on deaf ears, as do our communiques with our HR department; this often means that entry-level employees are able to get away with a great deal more misbehavior than they should be able to, while our local management is largely powerless to chastise them. Since ICT Group policy states that any suspension must be paid, we are unable to even send employees home for non-production. Plus, since the System Administrator for our center left for greener pastures, we are unable to replace production-floor PCs that break (and we're talking about 8-year old PCs that tend to die frequently).
