Pros

Umm... There were no pros. Steady employment? Oh no, they'll fire you with no warning, so nope not that either.

Cons

Poor compensation, doesn't have to advantages that working at a corporate Verizon, unrealistic sales goals. Too cheap to install a security system.

Pros

They sell a great product... Verizon.

Cons

Rediculous sales approach that they make you follow 100% of the time its more like an order takers approach. Experienced sales people will think its a joke and leave as soon as something better comes along. Underpaid compared to any competitor and the charge back policy is unfair.

We encourage you to reach out to your former Regional manager or the HR department at our corporate office in a professional manner if you have concerns regarding your employment at Russell Cellular. We do expect our district and regional managers to set the expectation up front that you are asked to contact customers in order to bring in business, so we are very sorry to hear that you were not made aware before you were hired. Thank you for your feedback.
