Alpine Access Jobs Review | Work From Home Watchdog
If you are a true professional, you will see right through this company. Right from the beginning, the hype and the marketing starts, trying to convince you how great Alpine is.
To begin with, the hiring process is a joke. You will spend hours filling out questionaires, watching hype videos, and taking tests. Once you have passed all of this, you go into a “pool” of potential hires. If and when you are called to interview, you will be placed in an online chatroom and given elimination questions. After they clear out the chaff, you will be sent to another room and told that if they choose to move forward with your interview process, that they will contact you.
I had not worked from home before and was very excited to go to work for Alpine. I gave notice to my current employer once I was told that I was hired. Alpine delayed my start date 3 months, making excuse after excuse which left me without income. If Alpine had not led me on, I could have continued working until they were actually ready for me to start. Had I not wanted to be working at home so badly, I would have never waited this long to go to work.
The training is very fast paced and once you get into production, you find that you have learned very little about the real job you are going to be doing. Many times, your supervisors are in the same training as yourself and know no more than you do and can offer little to no help.
Quality audits are extremely subjective and offer little to no positive coaching. The metrics are difficult to achieve in the beginning but usually become much easier as time goes by. Metrics are a tool used to weed people out quickly and you will find that your original classmates start to drop out daily from the program you are working on.
The promise of more time with your family, incentives and flexibility are garbage. I spent less time with my family over a year than I had ever before working outside the home. You will never be able to work the hours that you are looking for. The incentives or bonuses are non-existent and the pay is extremely low.
If you incur issues with their hardware/software, you will have to fight tooth and nail to be compensated for your time. They have a neat and tidy closet of hoops to jump through in order to be paid and if you don’t post your tech time/issues in a minimum of 3 places, you won’t be paid. Then, if you do follow their procedures, you can still be denied pay and have to start raising hell with management to get your money.
They make everything outside of your call time a nightmare. I would not recommend this company to anyone. Keep searching as there are some very good companies out there that don’t treat you like cattle and pay much better than Alpine ever will.
(I am currenly on layoff from this company and have tried multiple times to be placed in another program over the past year. I will no longer be reapplying with them)
