    The Gov’t can not stop poaching.

    In essence you are inviting collusion and salary fixing.

    Quality education is the key to success.

  2. William says:

    If Davao does not want its call-center worker to be poached then Davao should learn to pay very good rates. you can’t expect people to stay in Davao if the local business make a killing from outsourcing and pay their staff dirt-cheap rates. Wake up and smell the crap.

    link2support is paying soooooo loooowwwww! and it’s squeezing the agents’ productivity too much to the point of denying your personal needs…
    if you want to be employed in a call center, don’t ever think about link2support… it will eat you up leaving your only soul to survive! the company is not treating them humans but machines, without hearts and wisdom.
