Dead end. Good job if you like being abused by customers while your pay decreases.

Pros

Being able to work from home is the only reason to do this job.

Cons

Even with experience, no opportunity to advance. Bonus programs changed to minimize how much they have to pay top performers. Paid time off is difficult to get approved and constant abuse from horrible customers.

Business Outlook

Pros

Work-at-home position. Flexible hours with a "build your own schedule" system

Cons

This is a call center position. Typical call center culture: metrics to meet, ever-changing company goals, calls listened to by management, and uneducated supervisors who micro-manage their employees. It is a great job to have while searching for your "real" job, but not a good place to make a lifetime career. The pay is very, very low for all positions.
