Pros

The only positives are that: you get commission for each insurance line you "save", call volume isn't super high, and the benefits are quite good.

Cons

Imagine 30-50% of callers complaining about our insurance being added without their consent by the store/phone sales rep and then having to ignore their frustrations and build a relationship to only PUSH insurance that has more holes than swiss cheese! That's your daily routine within the Sprint Saves (retention) department. The unauthorized addition of insurance is SO rampant and well-known that even Sprint reps sigh and joke about how often people call about the same thing! After being on the phone for 20-60+ minutes arguing with Sprint over a high bill, here we come in to make a final attempt to convince them to keep an insurance that only keeps going UP in price (with limited notice), while at the same time increasing already-high deductibles (i.e. $225 to replace an iPhone 6 - yes, really). In the end, I worked in this department for over a year and finally had ENOUGH of feeling morally reprehensible and - as a result - stressed on a daily basis. So if you value your mental health and career growth, take my advice and skip Sprint Saves - in fact, skip Asurion! Unless you enjoy selling worthless insurance while making them tons of money.

Pros

The job does pay well and does give you commission and mileage back. It’s 22.05 an hour and .77 cents per mile ( you will drive a lot and your mileage check will probably be the same as your weekly check )

Cons

The job is hyper focused on pushing people to sell VHDP or HTP (VHDP Verizon Home Device Protection ), ( Home Tech Protection ). The job doesn’t really care for the financial situation of a client and will say “ well you could have told them even though they are on a fixed income, they can still get the plan and talk to their ISP about financial hardship “ the staffing is sometimes very scarce and is also very lack of consideration for driving far off with no help if you get stuck. If you happen to have a vehicle issue ( which you will ) you have 7 days to get it back up in running before you get either written up or let go. I did enjoy working for this company, but it was mentally taxing and always was about getting every dollar out the customer even though they already paid for the visit for you to come out, and the phone replacement which they have to pay for monthly. Once you have worked for the company for atleast 90 days you will get a tablet and they will make you start doing Verizon consultation about the customers WiFi and try to sell them these 90 dollar WiFi just so they can make the most money possible. It’s all just give me money even though you already gave me money
