      He trabajado en el mismo puesto que tú antes de mudarme al extranjero. Sí, la envidia es rampante para personas con nuestras habilidades (no solo para los extranjeros). Incluso los gerentes tienen una envidia oculta y he encontrado algunos casos porque los salarios suelen ser más altos para los bilingües que para los gerentes, incluso. Odio el hecho de que tengan celos por eso, así que nunca compartas con tus compañeros de trabajo que solo hablan inglés cuánto ganas, porque inspira envidia. Quiero decir, si ellos quieren ganar lo mismo que nosotros, ¿por qué no intentan aprenderlo y ver lo difícil que es? De todos modos, me alegra que estés empezando a adaptarte a Filipinas y estoy muy feliz de que vayas a trabajar en la misma industria en la que trabajé antes. El mundo es pequeño para nosotros los bilingües en español, así que quién sabe, tal vez tus compañeros de trabajo solían ser mis compañeros también.

    I worked 10+ years overseas but now back I'm working in Philippines. The work culture here is better and more professional. The compensation package is good too, such as Health (HMO), Bonus, 13th Month etc. uuhm may be content about daily life as foreigners working in Philippines. Typical working environment in Philippines is like treating colleagues like family, however; the drawback in that is familiarity with each other that results to gossips 😅

      And that's what I don't like. Not all workmates are friends. Some are just simply workmates. Just get promoted & promoted, you don't have to deal with those people anymore. They have no choice but to look up to you.

    Lass, as a Filipino and if you want to gain true friends in work place, I wish to give you a Piece of advice, stay away from "Marites" don't entertain gossips. If you cannot say anything good about others unless positive. Just avoid side comments. For it might be misconstrued by others....Pray always and I wish you all the best..

    • @ynnos5555
      @ynnos5555 3 месяца назад +3

      Also, avoid lending money. BPO centers are notorious hunting grounds of estafadors and estafadoras.

  • @teddymiles1324
    @teddymiles1324 3 месяца назад +32

    I'm working in a BPO industry for more than 10 years. I would say working environment is pretty much the same in all call center companies. You'll experience easy to hard or toxic accounts. But the best advise is that just try to focus on your job, avoid gossips and stay friendly and get along with your workmates😊

    Congratz Sol and Luna on finding a new job and on your new role in the BPO industry. Yes, we understand that you will no longer have more videos, and that's okay. Tip on your new role:
    1. Don't worry about learning Tagalog right away. Your office mate will talk to you in English or Spanish since you will be assigned to the Spanish department.
    2. During training, take good care of your attendance and enjoy. You will miss it once you're on the production floor.
    3. Don't worry too much about work politics and other negative issues you might have read or heard about. I can guarantee you that your fellow agents (batch mates/teammates) will treat you well and they will be your best buddies. Especially the management team, they will do everything in their power to help you excel in your role.
    4. I'm not sure if your training period is also during the graveyard shift but be ready with your coffee mugs, hehehe you'll know what I mean when you get there.
    5. Finally, HAVE FUN and ENJOY don't take it too seriously coz it will drain you.
    I wanna share these 3 words that my manager taught me: LEARN, LIVE, and LOVE.
    LEARN the process- this will emerge you into the role that you'll be doing in the company.
    LIVE with what you currently have - this will help you feel contented and will also motivate you to always be at your best.
    LOVE your role and the people around you - this is the secret of those people who stays in the company for many many years.
    AGAIN, CONGRATS KAMBAL and GOODLUCK!!! we will still be here as your supportive viewers/subscribers/followers.

    You are very, very lucky to find a job in the Philippines as a foreigner. The only reason you got hired is because of your spanish skills. I am an American and I could not even get an interview with a Filipino company once they found out that I am not married to a Filipina, and have no working rights and require an alien employment permit. They literally would not even interview me. I finally found a job that asked for an American accent. I applied and got hired by an American outsourcing company, which was willing to employ me through their US branch to avoid any problems with work visas, etc. My job is to find business leads and cold call them to try to convince them to outsource jobs to the Philippines. I create good paying jobs for Filipinos. Treasure your high paying job, it is truly precious here for a foreigner, and congratulations. There is a reason that you are the only foreigners at your call center and that is because you are native Spanish speakers..
