Pros

Awesome co workers. 6 week paid training. Work with school schedule. Pay isn't too shabby, but after you hit the floor and realize all you have to do, I still think employees should start off at a higher pay.

Cons

"SALES SALES SALES" is all you hear after training. Initially in the interviews, they make it seem like the job is strictly customer service. HA, what a joke. Once you hit the floor, you'll hear "how many sales are you gonna get me today" every 10 mins from your team manager. If you don't sell wireless or broadband, your schedule is basically going to suck. Had I known that sales were going to be shoved down my throat, I would've never taken the offer. BEWARE OF SALES!!!

Pros

Remote work and great coworkers

Cons

Extremely low pay for the amount of work and the type of calls that you have to deal with. Lots of mircomanaging. Unrealistic metrics. Lack of knowledge and competency from leadership because at no point should your workers know more than you about the job itself. No care for unforseen life circumstances that affect your ability to work. Very stressful and mentally exhausting which often leads to burnout. No recognition for hard work and meeting metric goals. Too hard to get PTO approved. Tech and internal systems are always breaking which affects your ability to do your job. No one is ever on the same page which often leads to being given incorrect information. No room for growth or opportunities to go into other roles. Benefits are not that great. Mid health insurance plans, no 401K match, no parental leave, and no internet reimbursements. They'll sell you a fairytale in training so BEWARE.
