Pros – Learned basic selling skills. Good pay for teenager if you sell enough cell phones. Good experience working with a team.

Cons – Store locations in poor areas make it impossible to sell cellphones (other than Sprint). Accessories are not good quality, makes pushing them on customers harder, you learn who the "suckers" are and basically rip them off.

Pros – -Flexible schedule
-Potential for income growth

-I saw several people lose their jobs for not selling enough phones or features. This is a hard position for those that aren't motivated to sell and meet quotas. Takes the right kind of person. Someone social and engaging.
