A Great Job to Say the Least
Customer Service Representative (Current Employee), Phoenix, AZ –
Pros: good salary, good benefits, acknowledgement of hardwork, location
Cons: none i can think of
I logged on daily to take calls from various customer inquires from all over the country to help with their financial needs. I met great people on and off the phone while working at Discover. This is a great company to start you financial career and expand your skills. There is growth and development here and management cares about you as individual – more...  and your needs. Management acknowledges employees efforts with gifts and words of encouragement. The hardest part of the job is staying set to one task when i rather work on more tasks daily, multi taski, brainstorm with co-workers, and providing more skills to benefit Discover's company growth. The most enjoyable aspect of work would have to be the satisfaction of helping someone in need and making their day all the more pleasent and rewarding for them. – less

Enjoyable work
Customer Service Representative (Former Employee), Columbus, OH –
Pros: great work environment
Cons: longer shifts sometimes got weary
Opened and serviced business card accounts. Learned that business clients are much different than personal clients in many cases, since business clients know more about the product and are more professional. Management was very supportive, co-workers were engaging. The hardest part of the job was the sales aspect on the personal card calls. The most – more...  enjoyable part was dealing with the business clients. – less

Not a fun place to work for
Student loan account manager (Former Employee), Salt Lake City, UT –
Was not pleased. Was given a false answer in my interview. Then they had me do what the said that the company did not do. Said that the did not do telemarketing but only call customers that are expecting my call or they need some other form to continue with their loan application. But the in the down time would call other discover customers to see if – more...  the need a student loan. (that is telemarketing). – less

Very Productive workplace, fun co-workers
Account Manager (Former Employee), West Valley City, UT –
Pros: rewarding, fun co-workers
Cons: angry customers
Discover card was a very challenging place to work but it was rewarding!

We would call customers and sell our products and services of what was being marketed at the time.

We would answer any customers questions about their account. The hardest part was when you got angry customers. You just need to stay calm and everything will work out fine.

It – more...  was great to find out more about credit card fraud and how to prevent it. It was rewarding to help our customers from fraud and from the other services we offered. – less

Limited opportunities
Credit Analyst (Current Employee), New Castle, DE –
Limited opportunity for advancement. Managing up is not particularly encouraged. Much of the policies and procedures are disorganized but that is improving.

Awesome Friends/Great Job
Account Manager (Former Employee), Phoenix, AZ –
Pros: cafeteria, vending machines, arcade lounge, awesome friends, killer pay
Cons: redundant work, attendance policy
Discover is awesome; they treat their employees great and its a great place to make new friends and earn easy money. With that being said, they do have a very very stringent attendance policy; their policy is basically if you call our 24 hours before your next shift starts you are fine and you won't be reprimanded, BUT if you call out the day you work – more...  or have to leave work because you are seriously very sick and cannot function, do not count on it to be excused. Doctor's notes are great but if you miss a day no matter what it will count against you. Also don't expect much change, it gets really redundant with the inbound calls because you quickly learn every call is the same and it gets pretty boring. But the pay rocks! – less
