However popular perceptions are an issue, for e.g. .... thanks to Chetan Bhagat (novelist who wrote a novel describing the complicated lives of a few characters and put this the context of a call center) there is a common belief that BPO companies are all about telemarketing and making those pesky calls to clients who don't need them in the first place, of strange people working odd hours and living lives stressed out to the edge.
