Nationwide Student Loans Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"Bad place to work at. When they hire you, they lie about how much money the other telemarketers are making. The top people only make about $3K a month. They do not train you at all. First they give you a stack of papers to read about the history of student loans which has nothing to do with the job. Then you 'shadow' another telemarketer, i.e.: you sit behind them and watch them. He tries to train you in random ways but it's not really his job and they don't know what to show you. When I was hired the manager told me to do it his way and don't listen to anyone else. So I did it his way and worked harder than anyone else there. The result? I was fired because I wasn't making enough sales. But that's not unusual for this place. Their turnover rate is tremendous. I was there one month and saw five people leave and they only have about 8 people working there total. The managers are very lazy and don't do anything but play on their phones and drink Starbucks."
