What's the company culture at Sprint?

aeawq

ive recently applied for a sales consultant position for sprint out here in new york on late december. I was refered by the district manager so that was a plus i had the interview and everything. Passed the drug test and passed the backround check. 2 weeks later the manager calls me and tells me everything went through backround and drug test but the only problem is that sprint right now is in a "hiring freeze" i mean come on is that really the reason theyre not offering me a position ? than she goes on and tells me to wait 1-3 months until a position opens than theyll contact me. Like wtf!!

Byanes39..take it from me...even though jobs are hard to come by now, working for Sprint is absolute HELL...you would have been miserable working there anyway, and I'm sure not hiring you is their loss. Something better will come along

Buddy in Norcross, Georgia said: My best advice for you is to get out of the Mainstream Call Center Environment. If you have talent get some MCP's and get a job at Veritas or Symantec where it is not highly micromanaged you get paid what you are worth and you don't deal with idiots on the phone and off.--that is if you still insist on being in a call center. Try to get something software related and not geared towards the public. I got out of that environment, work 8-5 weekends off and used my education to get a better job, better hours and people who respect me. I wish you the best of luck. STop working for the cable company phone or electric company call centers and get away from the micromanagers!

hey I'm just trying to work at the call center in Atlanta for 1 more year which is when I will graduate Nursing school. With that being said do you happen to have a contact in HR at the Cumberland location that I can check in with regarding my application?

I worked in the Hampton va call center in Account Services and they are all about making the call center numbers look good. We were told to "escalate" unresolved issues but its not to help the customers its to avoid getting a no survey. People are LOSING their job because of this. Mind you transfer calls do not count towards your metrics of calls of 440 calls per month. This call center has training class booked thru April 2012 but call center is over staffed and one bad month means you're being walked out the door
