Pros

Sales maker discount on verizon bill. work life is only as good as the management. manager commission once targets are achieved

Cons

new commission structure will cause you to lose money if you dont meet the same biweekly targets as everyone and if your in a slow store your could only make only 25% of your commission. if management is bad your could end up being the only employee in a 5 rep store working 7 days a week until they find new hires. at one point i was the only employee for 6 months by myself in a 5 rep store at this time both my regional director and district manager were fired so i had no upper management to count on i was expected to keep the store open because if i didnt the next day we would get a bunch of angry customers cursing and screaming why we werent open.

Pros

most of the average people there are friendly and positive. Free garbage coffee

Cons

80% of the coaches currently there suck. They do very little for self improvement. The director of the telesales call center likes to threaten your job on the daily. Coaches love to micromanage every aspect of your day letting you know if you’re 1 min too late from breaks. Their sales knowledge sucks and basically comes to “figure it out yourself” they try to provide training in vain because they cannot give you a method that they do not contradict later by going in the complete opposite direction. You’ll get told to do one thing and then the very next week get punished for that thing and get told another thing. Commission structure pays you back Pennies for what you’re selling. You’ll sell a 1k dollar phone and get 5 dollars in commission
