QVC Allows Staff to Be Working from Home ~~ YEAH FOR QVC!!

When I called this afternoon for a return, the person mentioned this, and i was so happy for her, as she had just mentioned that in the evening in Va. Beach it had snowed 10 ". That is totally unheard for in the area.

So thought this was really good for its employees and compliment the company for this.

I think they might always work from home. The Customer Service people that is.

What if you want to talk to a supervisor? The call gets transferred to his/her house?

Lots of customer service reps, including order takers, work out of their homes. And yep, if you need a supervisor, you can be transferred. They have dedicated phone lines.

Magenta, I think most of these reps do work from home anyway. However, a couple of years ago there was a list of best employers in the Delaware Valley in the paper and QVC was one of the best for various reasons.

Hope you are staying warm.

There's a huge call center in Texas and one in Pt. St. Lucie, Florida. I have a friend who works parttime at the Texas site.

Lots of people do this. My brother works from home, my cousins wife, and one of my friends also work from home. They all do computer type jobs. Of course they also check in at their actual jobs from time to time. I too think its great.

A few months ago I was speaking to a rep and during the course of our conversation, she said that QVC employees can work from home. If I wasn't so spoiled now from being retired over five years, it would have sounded tempting, especially w/ a 30% employee discount flag waving in front of me. Wink
