Well recommended in the business process outsourcing industry.

Fun
It was good experience and you will really learn on the company. They also have a excellent working environment and a lot of nice people working there specially the team leaders
Very Good Management, Co-agents are Friendly
I worked there for 1 year and I can say that the Management cares about the employees, Agents are very friendly, Benefits are good (HMO plus 2 Free dependents), the work is very easy. I left because of proximity/ travel time from home to Startek was 3 hrs.What I can say is the Company that will like family, a place like home.

-more training provided for those with potentials
-small company

Friendly Environment and providing good compensation
Been with startek for than 4 years and had a great brand culture. Management ensure that all employees had a career growth and providing good compensation.
I love working here
Being here at Startek is such a nice experience for me because I surrounded to many people who always think positive in life no matter what happened, problems are always there if you think it wisely it may control you all the times that may cause of negativity in life. Also being honest at your work is very important because this will be seeing of who you are.
High Salary
Encourage employees to take on different responsibilities outside their daily tasks.
Push employees to create challenging stretch goals.
Use GOOD one-on-one meetings for thought-provoking career discussions.

It was not very stressful but exciting
Know your culture and know what you want. Above everything be sure to know your english. They are also looking into your job history and how long did you stay there.

Customer Service Representative (Former Employee) – Mandurriao Iloilo City, Philippines – September 12, 2019
Answered phone calls from customers needing assistance with their accounts like paying their bills, placing orders or addressing issues with their orders and technical issues. Startek is a telecommunication company that has customer service contracts with 1800Flowers.com, Amazon, Spectrum and etc.
Pros
free lunch sometimes, free coffee, friendly workmates
Cons
Night shift
productive
Startek teaches me a lot in handling customers complaints and issues by coaching and training us.The company also provides fun environment by setting up billiard tables, computer games and sleeping quarters as well where we can rest.
Professional team mates
Good team mate with a nice team leader that always support his agent willing to help a kind of work place that you can encourage other people to apply on this company having a good company back ground and good people each department this company is really best in terms of quality service in bpo industry.
Pros
Free food
Cons
8 Hours shift
Pros: Very friendly environment. It definitely felt like my second home. Perfect for newbies in the call center industry.
No salary disputes which is a big plus for me.
Hmo is free, you can enroll upto two dependents.
Cons: HR is very biased. Yes, they do get the two sides of the story but if they are friends with the other side, then you're sorry. There is no chance for you to be heard. They act like they are the CEOs. Certified power-trippers.
Recruitment - Ok but there's a need for improvement. I think they are understaffed. And they need to look into shortening the recruitment process. It took me a very long time to finish everything.
Facilities: the ground floor cr has 6 cubicles but they only open 2 which is weird. Good facilities but its as if they don't want you to use them. Why? You need to email, or ask for a lot of permission before using the shower area, gym, sleeping quarters, karaoke room which is a bit of a hassle. And also the facilities manager is close with the HR powertrippers, so in short they are exempted from the strict rules of the said manager.
Operations/Management: Typical call center, lots of irate customers every single day. Its tolerable but some of the higher ups act like Gods too which made me feel unmotivated. No work life balance. Lots of mandatory o.t.
Salary and benefits: Not competitive. I can only compensate by doing OTs.
Employee Rewards, Events, Recognition: Meh. Did not feel it. No company christmas party or kick-off party. They seriously need to work on this part to keep their employees. A lot of people are resigning because they more... are not happy. less

Nice
Customer Service Representative (Former Employee) – Iloilo City, Probinsya sang Iloilo – August 25, 2019
In terms of growth there is none because you always transferred to other accounts wherein you need to start from the bottom again. But still thankful because they're doing everything for us not to loose our jobs. Kudos!
Startek is a good company
Startek is a good company but the account that I was assigned to was not. The process changes every week and they are not sure if the problem of customers will be resolved. As an employee , I lose self-confidence cause I can't confirm with the customer if the problem will be resolved. If they are sure that this thing or that thing will happen, of course I am confident to tell every customers about it
Productive
I've learned a lot with my co workers attitudes and their likes and dislikes. They are helpful enough to finish your job and promoting mutual relationship with others.
