The people in the department are great! Manager and supervisor are cool. The atmosphere in the office is very nice and easy going. NYRA holiday parties are pretty cool.

Minpunten

Upper management loves to blame this department anytime anything goes wrong. This department also does other departments jobs like I.T. but aren’t offered higher pay. The company completely ignores the departments needs. There is no room for advancement except to become a "Team Leader", but they only get paid $2 more for TRIPLE the work. This department was told they'd receive the option to be full-time, that is false. No benefits. Fast food employees make more money than a Guest Service Rep at NYRA.

Thank you for your response. We’re happy you enjoy your colleagues and that’s it’s a good atmosphere in your department. And yes, we DO have a great holiday party, capped by the video of the burning yule log on the infield scoreboard. But we’re distressed at your perception of management and the assessment of blame: We have a saying here that we’re “The Hosts of the House,” which at its core means treating guests right, as if they're visiting our home. Our guests are foremost in our minds at all times—as are the people, like you, who are charged with serving them. If you have ideas about how to improve this area and what we can do to make it better for you, talk to your manager. Management IS listening.

It is hybrid which helps if you are going to school, have kids, or take care of family.

Minpunten

There are a lot of cons unfortunately, I will start with the biggest one which is zero communication from management regarding tracking your progress. You only have weekly meetings with your assigned QA coordinator to go over calls and chats for the week but nothing in depth regarding where you are on the metric system which is an issue when it comes to your yearly review as you would have some low numbers that no one brought to your attention during the whole year. There is also no team meetings for refresher trainings or just to give your feedback about how management is doing. The pay of $17(which goes up to a few cents based on your yearly review and is not awarded to everyone) is not worth it in my opinion. They also do allow for anyone to be off on saturdays even on a rotating basis like most jobs do which makes no sense as they would have all of the CSR’s online for every hour of 9AM-12 midnight they can atleast let one or two people be off on saturdays on a rotating basis but nope. HR also is not available for any documents you may need for your record which is concerning. They also do not give accurate information as it is constantly changing without any warnings. The laptops are also old and just wiped and given back out to the new CSR’s so they have a lot of issues such as slowing down, audio issues etc. You can’t put new systems on a old model laptop which they can afford to give the CSR’s all the money that they make it is very sad as the CSR’s are the main point in contact for customers you would think they would treat them better.
