Svantaggi
Extremely detailed routine that is impossible to remember Low pay and terrible benefits Terrible training that leaves you confused and clueless Good ol' boy system Management doesn't listen or accommodate to employees' needs . Fully conscious of Work/life balance practically non-existent Being constantly blamed for things that were beyond your control. Extremely isolating at times- hardly get to talk or get to know clients and employees on a personal basis. Clients can be pretty mean towards the QAs and have impossible demands. Unfortunately, management takes the client's side before the employee's. No upward mobilization to higher positions like project manager Impossibly long hours with brainless, menial work No real, established break time Lack of consideration for employees' mental and emotional health. Impossible not to make mistakes Lack of unity between the company's departments- there were a lot of people that I would have loved to meet and have connected with Schlesinger pampers clients way too much and needs to scale back on the hospitality for these people. This isn't the Four Seasons Hotel- it's a facility for market research...you know...getting people's opinion on Cheez-Its. Having to be a "maid for the Holiday Inn" was pretty degrading and stressful.
