This isn't a great management style. Of course eventually people have to just jump on calls and figure it out. But during your training period you should have your manager/trainer there to help you. At least that's how we do it.

Thank you. This is the training strategy that I would hope for. I’m really trying to keep this position, but they’ve given us exactly two weeks to start taking calls, with half baked training. In fact, a week into taking calls we’re on our 4th day of taking calls before learning about our fraud policies. So throwing us in the fire without knowledge of fraud, special returns, etc is setting us up for failure. I’ve been in sales for over 25+ years, however I’ve never been a CSR, but this is the most backwards training I would’ve ever thought a company this size would give.
Thank you for the insight of the way your training procedures go, I think they’re very fair and the pace is super necessary.
Oh yes! It was a nightmare for me. Good thing my colleague helped me out, and I got the hang of it after some time.
Don't ask your colleagues on Slack how to do something. Ask them how to access the operations manuals and procedures that will help you learn how to assist customers. Also, why don't you let the tickets be pending and see how many trainers reach out to you about it?
Always make sure to document all of this to management. That's incompetent to me.
