This exciting hiring initiative features roles with location �lexibility, allowing employees to choose how they work — on site, remote or a combination of both — as long as they live in a state with a call center, which includes Arizona, Delaware (and surrounding area), Illinois, Ohio or Utah. Open positions include customer service representatives, cardmember assistance (collections) representatives, underwriters,
personal loans specialists and team leaders. “Our award-winning customer service team is 100% U.S.-based and we’re excited to be adding more individuals to our team,” said Jill McAree, human resource director at Discover. “With increased �lexibility and a full suite of bene�its for �lex and full-time employees, Discover offers a range of opportunities and is truly a great place to work.” Discover has long been recognized as a top employer through a variety of awards and achievements, including multiple location speci�ic best place to work awards and Glassdoor’s 2021 Best Place to Work for Large U.S. Companies List. Full-time employees will receive Discover’s full bene�its package, which includes:
• Starting hourly wage of $16 with shift differential opportunities to earn up to $20.70 per hour • Paid time off (at minimum, 20 personal days plus seven holidays per year) • Medical/dental/vision/life insurance • Education assistance: fully paid bachelor’s and tuition assistance and reimbursement options • 401(k) with company match and �ixed contribution • Employee stock purchase plan The education bene�it, Shine Brighter U, offers employees access to fully paid undergraduate education programs, undergraduate/graduate degree tuition assistance, along with opportunities to enroll in nonde-
