Pros

Some good coaches, some bad coaches. Lots of overtime.

Cons

Favortism at the workplace. Added new metrics to curb cheating, but they hurt nearly everyone. Was a good company till then on the Premier support side. The Que is outrageous as I am writing this and they expect you to do back to back calls for your entire shift. I average about 40-50 calls per day at the moment. The Que is so bad they pull tech leads and Coaches off the phones to take calls. They have hiring events but out of the last one they had 100+ bodies show up and only hired two people. severely understaffed.

Pros

The job does pay well and does give you commission and mileage back. It’s 22.05 an hour and .77 cents per mile ( you will drive a lot and your mileage check will probably be the same as your weekly check )

Cons

The job is hyper focused on pushing people to sell VHDP or HTP (VHDP Verizon Home Device Protection ), ( Home Tech Protection ). The job doesn’t really care for the financial situation of a client and will say “ well you could have told them even though they are on a fixed income, they can still get the plan and talk to their ISP about financial hardship “ the staffing is sometimes very scarce and is also very lack of consideration for driving far off with no help if you get stuck. If you happen to have a vehicle issue ( which you will ) you have 7 days to get it back up in running before you get either written up or let go. I did enjoy working for this company, but it was mentally taxing and always was about getting every dollar out the customer even though they already paid for the visit for you to come out, and the phone replacement which they have to pay for monthly. Once you have worked for the company for atleast 90 days you will get a tablet and they will make you start doing Verizon consultation about the customers WiFi and try to sell them these 90 dollar WiFi just so they can make the most money possible. It’s all just give me money even though you already gave me money
