Pros
friendly staff with some decent staff incentives. Office did have quite a high tempo feel.
Cons
Found the office to be unprofessional at times with managers often being inappropriate. The company has a poor staff attrition rate.
Advice to Management
Hard to know where to start. But I feel more emphasis on listening to staff would be a good start.

Pros
days go by quick and you get to speak to a lot of different kinds of people. opportunity to get hands-on experience
Cons
company's not encouraging good behaviour and police people on irrelevant things. work ethic also not a strong suit
Advice to Management
supervise people on relevant things, and be a bit more proactive when trying to tackle issues, don;t just be there to collect a paycheck

Pros
The GMP is excellent and gave me a really good start in my career.
Cons
They employ some fairly out of date HR policies. Much of the actual call centre was run like a school. White shirt policy, ask if you can use the toilet etc.
Advice to Management
Nothing they don't already know.

Pros
The staff there are all amazing people, so friendly and down to earth
Cons
well, after a week of listening to the manager go on about how much money he has you will then be put on the sales floor and FORCED to bring ENERGY into the room, if not you get moaned at saying you need to be loud enough, completely unprofessional management swearing all the time and making fun of other people, if you dont hit your target you are pointed out at the meetings and if you dont bring enough ENERGY then its...

be more supportive of your whole staff, not just your 'top hitters', dont ask for so much energy if you concentrate more on the staff being happy there the atmosphere will come naturally
