Pros

employees of Cellular sales used to be LLC contractors, the verizon commission payouts were way more than they are now, and the tax liability was very low as everything could be written off. No joke almost everyone was making about 5k a month just working 5 shifts per week. between increased shares, commission cuts and drop in traffic it has become very difficult to make that kind of money. They are now employees yet treated the same as before. The potential is there to make good money. This is a great place to work if you like working weekends evenings, and or working a lot. This job looks great on a resume. highly motivated people will come alive with cellular sales.

Cons

Having to work with people who "clerk the opportunity" Constant comission cuts from verizon, and also cellular sales to it's reps. Low inventory. no paid time off, terrible benefits. you may make $50 on a sale, but if it deacts you get charged back the full commission amount from verizon which could be more than $200. you are charged full retail cost for missing inventory. Dealer cost on phones and accessories are rediculously inflated. If they put as much effort into retaining and rewarding the quality reps and not so much effort on just hiring anyone with a heartbeat, the company would be so much better. some stores are terribly slow and on top of that the stores are always overstaffed because they dont want customers to wait at all, ever. It doesnt matter how many people are on the share , cellular sales makes the same either way so they dont care.

Pros

Great coworkers (other retail sales associates) who will help you succeed and make deals and answer any questions you may have,

Cons

Given an ultimatum and threat of firing after 15 days of work for not outperforming the entire store. Completely unrealistic targets with added bullying. Long term coworkers agree & overheard manager totally bullied and singled me out for no reason.
