Pluspunten

WAH has a freedom unlike other work types. One could take a moment to take care of business without having too much to do with negative feedback from people. They'd sometimes have shining stars in the darkness of getting support, some people there were quick to give you help and should be commended for their kindness and efforts amidst the problems that have been creates by CCOD and poor Management positions, these people were simple consultants themselves.

Minpunten

Terrible restrictions on WAH associates. They claim they support their employees but their Cox PHX support "team" but their training needs a huge load of work in order to become anything close to supportive. Their resources and software were out of date piece-meal systems that caused daily problems with support times for clients. When I tried to place myself in Aux 6 for down times for common problems with the software ui that happened daily and were well known issues they'd accuse you of abusing the system treating you like you were in high school. Their sales focus is so wrong they actually had people stealing sales from one another and signing customers up for services customers didn't even know they had. On several occasions they'd chastise you for not getting a yes on service to sales calls where people would call in about their products not working, understandably irate. Their leadership didn't seem to care about the human element of the position, their only concern in this environment was the penetration number. You couldn't call out with any real ailment or issue or sickness because it would arouse immediate suspicion despite any evidence you might have to the contrary. Their training is extremely short for the extreme amount of information they are throwing at you and they expect you to be fully prepared and memorize everything by 6 weeks time, a fraction of the time the actual company you are supporting uses for their training programs. Their schedules are fixed, no rotations, if you manage to get one that's every weekend you get stuck with it because their announcements on schedule bidding would get "lost" if you weren't one of the "favorite" sales people. Training for sales was non-existent, on the several occasions I reached out to my team leader and the manager of the entire department before his departure I was given a "just do it" instruction on how to communicate with the customers, no typical qualifier process or training video I've experienced in other companies with a sales focus to ensure that employees are properly trained and successful. Instead of helping the employees be successful with proper training we received several emails with how others do it well after the time it takes to be in training. They'd actively log you into a chat room to harass you about sales numbers when you first log in. They'd hire a large section of the populous and lose people left and right over and over due to their terrible management practices and toxic sales environment, this has probably been going on for months if not years and was explained to me to be a recent change in the company according to old heads in the business. The benefits of sales are a spiff system that hardly compensates associates for the toxicity of the sales pressure environment that breeds a pirate-like system of theft from other associates and services activated that customers don't even know they have. Their call scripts were inhuman and required a robot like response to receive proper scoring on what you said instead of how you treated the customer and helped them. Their resources were scattered all over the place were most of the time hard to find and would have frequent problems loading.

Pluspunten

Remote work and great coworkers

Minpunten

Extremely low pay for the amount of work and the type of calls that you have to deal with. Lots of mircomanaging. Unrealistic metrics. Lack of knowledge and competency from leadership because at no point should your workers know more than you about the job itself. No care for unforseen life circumstances that affect your ability to work. Very stressful and mentally exhausting which often leads to burnout. No recognition for hard work and meeting metric goals. Too hard to get PTO approved. Tech and internal systems are always breaking which affects your ability to do your job. No one is ever on the same page which often leads to being given incorrect information. No room for growth or opportunities to go into other roles. Benefits are not that great. Mid health insurance plans, no 401K match, no parental leave, and no internet reimbursements. They'll sell you a fairytale in training so BEWARE.
