					<description>I am a concerned guy, most especially for those who have not tried working and want to work at Sutherland Davao.

I was employed at Sutherland Davao in Tibungco TESDA. Process of hiring is usual as all of the other call centers. I may not be speaking for the whole, but my personal experiences with them had shared in common with several agents’ personal experiences as well.

If your luckily chosen to be hired then I don’t really think your lucky at all. Recruitment will just say ” your training will start next week, we’ll just inform you about the schedule’. By Monday, nobody called or even sent SMS informing me about the schedule. You would have to be the one always reminding them to remind you. Their HR / Admin, I think is at complete disarray.

By the time you are on training, you would always be the one to catch up on them regarding papers/forms that need to be filled out (bank forms, Philhealth, PAGIBIG, TIN, etc. Is it not supposed to be that Admin/HR should be the one to provide you forms/papers while you guys are in class or huddled together by batch?

Third of all, the ever interesting SALARY. They give out the highest starting salary in Davao City. Well, that is what they say. But the truth is there will be a lot of salary discrepancies. They let you sign in and out on a piece of paper to keep records of your attendance but at the end of the month, salaries will be questionable. There was a guy who has always been absent but has received the same amount of salary with the punctual guys. Some other guy has not been receiving his salary to two pay offs, and was asking if he was going to get a carry over of those on the third pay; Admin replied: “of course you will”. On the third pay day, whhhaaalllluhhh!!! All he got was an equivalent of one pay.

Guys… wake up. If you had heard of some stories and now just heard mine; please consider what you have all heard. Stories are not made with with out basis.

This company has a lot of issues.
1. Salary discrepancies
2. Admin/HR unprofessionalism
3. Promises of Free shuttle service to Tibungco but now you need pay it
4. No night shift differential when on training
5. Poor training classroom setting
6. Indian product trainers that you can’t understand
7. etc., that I do not know of as of today, because I quit and bail out on them.</description>

Making things worst for the victim-sleep deprived employee, they don’t give pay stub in paper. One must go through their web based program to view it, and by the way they don’t give priority in teaching you on how to do it.

Once you hit production, you are going to be overloaded with information and work. They say they are lookin for Technical Support Representative. The catch - surprise! You are going to do both the work of technical support and customer service. It is going to be a lot of work, a lot of tools, a lot of time that will be eaten up by this job. Guys get into a company that has ‘employee satisfaction’ in the line of their priority.

Wake up. If you had heard of some stories and now just heard mine; please consider what you have all heard. Stories are not made without basis.
