Stop Agent Burnout Before It Becomes Turnover
Real-time wellbeing monitoring for call centers. Detect burnout, disengagement, and attrition risk early. Build psychological safety. Keep your best agents.
The Call Center Burnout Crisis
Call center turnover is hemorrhaging: agents face constant pressure, emotional labor, limited autonomy, and monitoring that feels like surveillance. Many leave without warning—and by the time you know, they're gone.
45%

Why Call Center Agents Burn Out
The Pressure Cooker
- → Constant Metrics. Every call monitored. Every pause counted. Zero autonomy.
- → Emotional Labor. De-escalating angry customers, absorbing blame, staying professional under stress.
- → Low Control. Limited ability to resolve issues or say "no" to unreasonable demands.
- → Pay-Effort Mismatch. High stress, modest compensation. Resentment builds.
The Silent Exit
- → No Warning Signs. Agents don't speak up—they just quit.
- → Exit Interviews Too Late. By then, they've made up their mind. You learn nothing actionable.
- → Cascade Effect. One departure triggers morale drops; more follow. Quiet quitting accelerates.
- → Coverage Gaps. Remaining agents pick up slack. Burnout speeds up further.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does PulseFeed detect burnout?
We analyze anonymous feedback for emotional exhaustion, cynicism, reduced effectiveness, and stress patterns. AI identifies signals agents might not consciously recognize yet. We combine individual data with team trends to spot at-risk agents early.
Will this feel like surveillance to agents?
No. Feedback is 100% anonymous and voluntary. Agents see that management cares about their wellbeing—not just their performance. This itself builds psychological safety and trust. Many agents say it's the first time they felt heard.
How does this integrate with our existing systems?
PulseFeed works standalone—share the feedback link with your team and start collecting signals immediately. We can integrate with WFM, HRIS, or CRM systems if you want to add context (shift, tenure, etc.), but it's not required.
What happens after we identify a high-risk agent?
You get context: emotional signal, workload stress, team dynamics. Recommended actions vary—coaching, schedule relief, skill training, 1-on-1 check-ins, or mentorship. We provide a playbook so you know how to respond.
How much does this cost vs. agent turnover?
At typical call center volumes, PulseFeed costs far less than one agent replacement. If you prevent even one resignation per quarter ($8K–12K), the platform pays for itself many times over. Most centers see payback in 30–60 days.
