Pros

It's a full time job.

Cons

Their pay is way below industry standards. The company claims to have interegity and prides themselves on customer experience but they are the bottom feeders of the cellular industry. I have no idea how they keep those doors open, people must be desperate for work but anybody worth their salt will leave soon.

Thank you for the review. We appreciate that you enjoyed the full time hours while working with us. Our pay is very competitive within the industry. We do pride our selves on the customer experience and maintain one of the highest Customer Net Promoter Scores within the industry. In regards to how we keep our doors open, in October 2018, just last month, we won Verizon's Partner of the Year Award. This is just one of numerous awards we continue to receive. If you have any ideas on how we can create a better employee experience, we would love to hear them. Thank you for the review!

Pros

Potential for good income Ample downtime Base pay + commission instead of commission only LGBTQ+ friendly, name tag does not need to be your legal name

Cons

Poor management Values KPIs above customer needs (you'll still get plenty of emails telling you to not, but verbally it is encouraged to do whatever it takes to meet number goals) Poor/minimal hands-on training (everything is video webinars that are basically just power point slides. No in-person coaching unless you get lucky and have a good manager.) Unlikely to progress to higher paying positions.
