Pros

The only good about this job is you only need to put in minimum hours, come in around 11 am and leave before 5 pm.

Cons

There is a wide spread of misconduct and incompetence in this company. 1. Managers and business collude in overcharging customers; 2. The company is completely careless about personal data of its customers and employees; 3. HR and internal recruiters lie about pay and benefits just to get people onboard; 4. Managers are only interested in self-preservation, disregarding the responsibilities to customers. "As you are paid a salary, you cannot have your principals", I was told.
