Pros
(1) Free access to all the languages. (2) Great commission when you make sales goals (10-15% on average, depending on the month) (3) Manager is amazing to work for. Very very flexible. (4) Independent job. If you don't like dealing with co-worker drama, this job is for you. You work alone 100% of the time. (5) Septa train pass discount for airport employees. Also, airport marketplace/food discount (10% off) for airport employees. (6) EASY JOB! (7) If you like people-watching, you've found the job of your dreams. (8) If you're good at selling, you'll make pretty good money for working at an airport selling software!! ($31,000/yr is what I'm making, that's 15% on $9/hr) (9) Cobalt blue (or black) uniform button-down shirt, instead of the ugly PHL uniforms that everyone else who works in the airport has to wear. (10) Very easy to learn how to process a sale. Not much computer training is needed... just product knowledge & sales tricks.
Cons
(1) Working at the airport is terrible. (Dealing with the TSA- security scanning every day, higher cost of airport food, dealing with rude travelers who take their negativity out on you for no reason, 40 minute train commute into center city) (2) Low hourly pay. (3) Shifts are either really early morning (7am-2:30pm) or run late into the night (2:30pm-10pm) (4) Fighting boredom when it's slow. (5) Everyone asks "how many languages do YOU know?" It gets annoying, especially when you just start and only know a little of one language + English. Hard to express to the customers that "it really works!!!!!!" when you, yourself, haven't seen it work yet. (6) When there aren't any promos for the kiosk, everyone buys it online instead of from you. This cuts down your commission check. (7) If you're looking for a job that has growth opportunities, look elsewhere. There is nothing. You work at a kiosk until you quit and move to something else. End of story.
