Fun and energetic place to work, great management
Customer Care Manager (Former Employee), Exeter – May 22, 2013
The day pretty much consisted of receiving inbound calls relating to faulty technology products. Throughout working for Sitel, I developed many skills such as patience, clear communication skills and time management. The management within Sitel were fantastic to work with and always there to offer assistance when needed. The most enjoyable part of the – more... job I would say was working with my colleagues, enjoying the atmosphere between teams and thriving on the competition between colleagues. – less

urgh
glorified monkey (Former Employee), Newcastle – May 11, 2013
Cons: many
Awful place to work! The management don't have a clue, and the role claiming to be all about the "customer experience" has little to do with the wellbeing of the customer!

Fast Paced & Challenging Work Place
Team Manager (Current Employee), Exeter – May 7, 2013
Pros: great opportunity for development
Cons: long hours and often unsociable
There is no typical as each day presents new challenges. There are daily tasks to administer i.e. call monitoring's, reports, KPI management, coaching, time management. I have learned a great deal about managing a team in a corporate environment and balancing the needs of the business, the client, my team and my operational manager. I am competent in – more... analysing data gained from MI reports. The hardest part of the job is the work life balance, and the most enjoyable part of the job is seeing people I have coached and mentor go on to excel. – less

Productive and pleasant work place
Customer service advisor (Current Employee), London – April 28, 2013
I make calls and take calls and messsages. I listen to customers' wants and needs, providing information about products and service. I also answer and handle enquiries and complaints with working my computer, I am dealing with and recording customers' orders and finally I am advising about delivery schedules and after-sales services.

WHAT I LEARNED
Being – more... able to work in a team
Patience
Ability to remain calm under pressure
Friendly and tactful personality
Good timekeeping
Open minded attitude
Being able to handle complaints and difficult situations
Having good-communicator, listener and also computer skills

I work in a pleasant work environment, with some nice and friendly co-worker who seems happy to work for the company. I really enjoy
the atmosphere in the office and everyone on the team is
friendly and supportive to one another and the customers.
The managers support us and they’re sitting right there, ready to help us and the customer at the same time.

Nevertheless some can be difficult, some customers might call up very upset, angry, stressed and desperate. At this point, it is important to listen, stay calm and patient.

The best thing about my job is contact with people. – less

Dead end job!
CSP (Former Employee), Stratford-upon-Avon – February 7, 2013
Pros: good if you live close. social.
Cons: low wages and very little prospects.
Low wages and very little chance of pay raises or promotion.

Very old equipment and software that breaks down at the drop of a hat.

The upper management are clueless and are driven by making cuts rather than improving the environment, equipment and sourcing new clients to develop and grow the business.

Some bully and nepotism.

Poor facilities and – more... parking issues. – less

Repetitive job
Nokia customer care agent (Former Employee), Kingston – September 16, 2012
Pros: good collegues
Cons: irregular breaks
A typical day would be: I arrived at work, i turned on the computer and set everything up. After everything was set up I would get ready to take phonecalls and/or write emails, it would pretty much be the same during the day and I had two small breaks and a lunchbreak somewhere in the day. When i first started there i was nervous about taking calls – more... because I hadn't done that before. but as I have worked there for a while afterwards it became kind of boring and always the same thing. One thing I did like about the job were my collegues, they were always fun to talk to, to my collegues were one of the best parts of the job, considering. – less

Repetitve and tedious
customer service advisor (Current Employee), stratford upon avon – August 12, 2012
Pros: flexible hours
Cons: highly repetitive nature
Sitel served a useful purpose; to provide flexible part time work around my studies. My job was to primarilly to provide technical advice to customers of a large white goods maufacturer. The job in itself is highly repetitive, and in terms of career progression there is nothing, i would not recommend it as a full time job and would not recommend it – more... to those who don't have a posotive outlook on life, the job is mentally straining and repressive. – less
